This study looks at how your body uses fuel (carbohydrates and fats) during exercise, and whether that is different in males and females. If you are a healthy, active adult who regularly exercises, this research could help you understand your own body's energy systems.
This trial uses wearable devices to measure how much energy you burn while exercising on a bike. It helps researchers improve how they track energy use in healthy people.
This trial is looking at how healthy men's bodies use energy. It may help us understand weight and metabolism better.
This study measures how your body responds over time while you do a controlled exercise session. It may help researchers better understand normal changes in healthy adults during different exercise levels.
This study looks at how men's and women's leg muscles and blood flow respond to hard exercise. You do two cycling tests and a small leg biopsy (taking a tiny muscle sample) to help researchers understand why energy use differs between sexes.
