Determine the feasibility of investigating the acute effects of prolonged sedentary behaviour (sitting) in this target group. 2. Compare the acute effects of a single prolonged (8 hour) bout of sedentary behaviour (sitting) on glucose and triglyceride concentrations and key muscle and adipose regulatory enzymes to a similar bout of sedentary behaviour combined with intermittent bouts of light-intensity activity.
