About

The main aim of the present investigation is to study cardiac function in different exercise intensities in healthy human subjects. Two techniques will be used: cardiac ultrasound-derived stroke volume measurements and body impedance measurements. 20 healthy men (n=10) and women (n=10) aged 18-45 years will be investigated at rest and during exercise. All study procedures are non-invasive.
