Study Objectives: To identify specific changes in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)/micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) expression in muscle associated with higher or lower relative measures of mitochondrial capacity and fat oxidation. To identify secreted factors/miRNAs that specifically relate to the metabolic response of muscle and that are present after a single initial bout of exercise. To collect the appropriate clinical samples (muscle and adipose tissue, plasma/serum) to enable validation of myokines associated with changes in oxygen consumption/mitochondrial content via in vivo and in vitro discovery efforts.
