Practical Approaches for Interrupting Prolonged Sitting to Improve Postprandial Glucose and Protein Metabolism
The present study will determine the impact of interrupting prolonged sitting with short, 2-minute walks or body-weight squats on: i) postprandial glycemia and insulinemia, and; ii) postprandial utilization of dietary amino acids. We hypothesize that postprandial glycemia and insulinemia will be similarly improved by interrupting prolonged sitting with short walks or body-weight squats, whereas postprandial utilization of dietary amino acids will only be improved by interrupting prolonged sitting with body-weight squats.
