Effects of Aerobic Exercise Detraining on Energy Balance in Overweight Persons

The proposed study seeks to better understand the role of body weight, energy expenditure,
and energy intake as mechanisms of body weight gain during detraining following aerobic
exercise. It is hypothesized that participants in the higher dose exercise group will have
greater body weight gain compared to the lower exercise dose and control group from wk 24 to
wk 76 follow-up.

Eligibility criteria include having successfully completed the main E-Mechanic study, be
willing to archive blood samples and not being currently enrolled in another study that may
effect body, energy intake or energy expenditure. The investigators will measure body
weight, waist/hip circumference, blood pressure, body composition, physical activity,
questionnaire about appetite/food intake and physical fitness.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Completed the E-Mechanic study

- Be willing to archive blood samples

- Not participating in a study that would alter body weight, energy intake, or energy
expenditure.
