IMPACT: Immune and Musculoskeletal Physiological Adaptations to Combined Exercise Training & Nutrition

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Milk: 2 servings of 1% MF milk (1 serving = 250 mL) on non-training days and 3 servings on training days, integrated into habitual diet.

Greek Yogurt: 2 servings of plain or flavoured GY (1 serving = 175 g) on non-training days, and 3 servings of GY on training days, integrated into your habitual diet.

Exercise training: 12-week structured exercise training program. Exercise sessions will take place three times per week and will last approximately 60 minutes per session. Sessions will be conducted at York University in the Exercise Research Lab. Each session will be facilitated by a certified personal trainer and/or kinesiology student

Study summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether 12 weeks of exercise training combined with dairy consumption influences inflammation and immune responses in adults with overweight, compared to exercise training alone.

Eligibility
