Study Summary
The purpose of this graduate student research study is to determine if a high-intensity exercise program can slow or reverse biological (transcriptomic) aging and shed light on the underlying transcriptomic pathways involved.
Primary Outcome
Participants will have 8ml of blood drawn on two separate occasions by a certified phlebotomist. The first 8 ml (1.62tsp) blood draw will occur at 8am on day 1 of the study protocol. The second 8ml (1.62tsp) blood draw will occur approximately 30 days later. The total blood draw volume will be 16ml or approximately 3.25 teaspoons. The blood draw is to test for the effects of exercise on gene expression and aging.
