At the beginning of each intervention session, resting heart rate (HR) will be recorded after a period of quiet sitting.
Subsequently, within the same scanning session, resting cerebral perfusion imaging data were collected with the participants instructed to close their eyes during the acquisition.
They will complete the assessments in the following order during a morning session: resting BP and HR; body composition/anthropometry; [using dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)]; musculoskeletal fitness and cardio-respiratory fitness.
This technique uses the same MRI scanner used to generate fcMRI data, and since H-MRS can be performed in the same scanning session, resting levels of brain metabolites and brain connectivity maps can be acquired with minimal time lag between acquisitions.

Mice were then submitted to two consecutive test sessions of four trials with an inter-session resting period of 15 20 minutes during which they were returned to their home cage.
Fifteen subjects received massage in the first experimental session and rest condition during the second session, while the remaining 14 subjects received Intervention (massage or rest) in reverse order.
Six out of eleven songs were cut during their session; the rest were overdubbed by Redding in the following days owing to their concert obligations.
Six out of ten songs were cut during their joint session; the rest were overdubbed by Redding in the days following, due to concert obligations.
Outcomes were obtained at baseline, after each exercise intervention, and at the end of the recovery session (hydrotherapy, rest).
After a full explanation of the procedure to each patient, satisfactory technique and reproducibility of IC manoeuvres were established during an initial practice session at rest.
