It has been established that greater amounts of vigorous intensity physical activity lead to improved health outcomes. Interestingly, the response of biologically active substances, called myokines, differs according to exercise intensity. As such, the current study aims to compare the difference in the response to irisin according to different exercise intensities in both normal weight subjects and individuals living with obesity. This study will compare continuous moderate intensity physical activity to high intensity physical activity against a control condition. Furthermore, this study will determine whether differences in exercise intensity are associated with better insulin sensitivity.
