Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
We will examine the effects of a single 60 minute exercise session (aerobic or power exercises) on plasma uncarboxylated osteocalcin (unc-OC), adionectine (AN). Blood samples will be taken before exercise, immediately after and at 0.5, 1, 2, 24 and 48 hours post exercise.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 4276 0
Uncarboxylated osteocalcin (unc-OC) will be analysed based on a sandwich type electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) utilizing anti-OCG3 mouse monoclonal antibody labelled with Ruthenium (Ru) which luminates with electric stimuli. Magnetic beads bound to anti GluOC 4-5 mouse monoclonal antibody is used as a solid phase. After binding the unc-OC in the sample with the GluOC4-5 bound beads and Ru labelled OCG3, an electric impulse is applied via an electrode. The level of luminescence for the Ru complexes bound to solid phase antibody reflects the amount of unc-OC in the sample. The concentration of the unc-OC in the sample is measured by comparing the sample's luminescence to that of a calibrated solution of known unc-OC standards

Study design
Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Participants will be recruited mainly from VU students and young staff members and individuals from the western suburbs of Melbourne. All volunteers will receive an explanation about the nature of the study and those who will choose to participate will sign an informed consent document. In addition, participants will complete a health assessment questionnaire. Participants will then be randomly allocated (sealed opaque envelops) into power or aerobic exercise groups . Two different sets of sealed envelopes will be used for men and women to ensure a similar number of men and women in each group.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
The method of randomisation for this study is Stratified allocation. Randomization will be stratified according to sex.
Masking / blinding
Open (masking not used)
