Brief Summary: Specific aim 1 Using a fully crossed 2 intensity X 2 duration design the investigators will demonstrate a dose-response relationship between volume of aerobic exercise and changes in DNA methylation over four months among previously sedentary women

Specific aim 2 There are no published data on the extent to which positive effects of exercise on methylation might decay if exercise is not continued The investigators will gather data on the natural history of methylation decay after training
Detailed Description: Specific aim 1 Using a fully crossed 2 intensity X 2 duration design the investigators will demonstrate a dose-response relationship between volume of aerobic exercise and changes in DNA methylation over four months among previously sedentary women

Hypothesis 1 The investigators predict that there will be an interaction between intensity and duration characterized by a dose-dependent response to total exercise volume such that women will experience the greatest improvements in methylation at high intensityhigh duration 164 kcalkgweek and the least improvements in methylation at low intensitylow duration 56 kcalkgweek
Hypothesis 2 The investigators predict that there will be a main effect of exercise duration such that women exercising for 40 minutessession 4 sessions per week will show more improvement in DNA methylation compared with women exercising for 20 minutessession 4 sessions per week
Hypothesis 3 The investigators predict that there will be a main effect of exercise intensity such that women exercising at 75 of VO2max will show more improvement in DNA methylation compared with women exercising at 55 of VO2max

Specific aim 2 There are no published data on the extent to which positive effects of exercise on methylation might decay if exercise is not continued The investigators will gather data on the natural history of methylation decay after training

Hypothesis 4 At six months following the end of supervised exercise the investigators will assess the influence of the different levels of initial training and the passage of time on DNA methylation covarying whether or not participants continued to exercise It is predicted that the highest volume group will show the greatest persistence of positive changes in DNA methylation Alternatively it is possible that all four groups will return to baseline methylation levels of methylation and there will be no difference in methylation at 6 months following the end of supervised exercise
