Before and after the training program, skeletal muscle biopsies will be taken to measure PGC-1alpha and PPARgamma mRNA expression. In addition before and after the training program individuals will have the following measurements: body weight, waist circumference, body fat content (DEXA scan), euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamps, ergospirometer (VO2 max), routine laboratory measurements, serum malondialdehyde concentrations.
