Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The investigators will determine the acute effect of exercise on breastmilk composition. Participants will come in to the lab on three different days, out of which they will exercise on two of these days and rest in the lab on the third day. The conditions will be randomly allocated to each participant. Breastmilk samples will be obtained in the morning of each test day, as well as immediately after, one hour after and four hours after the exercise/rest condition. Dietary intake will be standardized on the test days.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Control

Resting in seated position

Experimental: Moderate intensity exercise

Moderate intensity endurance exercise, treadmill walking/running at 70% of heart rate maximum for 40 minutes

Behavioral: Moderate intensity exercise
Treadmill walking/running with moderate intensity

Experimental: High intensity exercise

High intensity interval training: treadmill walking/running. 10 minutes warm-up at 70% of heart rate maximum, followed by four 4-minutes bouts at 90-95% of heart rate maximum, separated by 3-minutes active recovery (at 70% of heart rate maximum)

Behavioral: High intensity exercise
Treadmill walking/running with high intensity
