Time of Day Effects on Autonomic Function and Anaerobic Performance using a Non-Motorized Treadmill

Time of Day Effects on Autonomic Function and Anaerobic Performance using a Non-Motorized Treadmill

This research is examining time of day effects on sprint test performance and and heart rate variability. It is also evaluating potential effects of circadian chronotypes on performance at different times throughout the day. For this study, participants will report to the lab on 5 occasions. The first two visits will be familiarization trials of the sprint test on a non-motorized treadmill (Woodway Curve). The last three visits will be testing sessions consisting of temperature, body composition, heart rate variability, and sprint performance assessments. These visits will be completed at ~9:00am, ~2:00pm, and ~7:00pm in the same 24 hour period and in a randomized order. Each visit will last approximately 30 minutes.

Inclusion Qualifications:

  • Male or female between the ages of 18-35 years old
