Funny/Amusing Video Clips

Horror/Scary Video Clips

Thrilling/Suspenseful Video Clips

Arm Description

Participants will watch 5-7-min video clips that are meant to be funny/amusing

Participants will watch 5-7-min video clips that are meant to be scary

Participants will watch 5-7-min video clips that are meant to be thrilling/suspenseful

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Total exercise gastrointestinal symptom burden
The severity of several gastrointestinal symptoms will be assessed on a validated 0-10 scale. Ratings will be collected every 5 minutes during a 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test. Scores from every 5-minute collection will be summed to calculate total GI symptom scores.
Change in emotion ratings
Anxiety, fear, happiness, amusement, disgust, sadness, and anger on a 0-9 Likert scale. Emotions will be assessed before watching video clips and immediately after watching video clips.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change over time in exercise heart rate
Heart rate will be measured with a chest-strap (Polar) monitor.
Substrate use
Carbohydrate and fat oxidation rates will be estimated from the volumes of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production during exercise
Feeling Scale
The Feeling Scale is a bipolar numerical rating scale ranging from -5 to +5, with descriptors of "very bad" at -5, "neutral" at 0, and "very good" at +5.
Fatigue Scale
The Fatigue Scale is Likert-type scale that ranges from 0 (Not Fatigued at All) to 10 (Total Fatigue).
Heart rate post-video
Heart rate will be measured with a chest-strap (Polar) monitor.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Many athletes anecdotally report modifying their nutritional intake before competition in order to avoid gut problems, but no studies have evaluated whether emotional state impacts tolerance to pre-exercise feeding. Therefore, this study will use movie clips (stressful, horror, and funny/amusing) to induce different mood states and emotions, which will be followed by ingestion of food before endurance running on a treadmill. In addition, metabolic and physiologic responses to mood induction will be evaluated.

Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Total exercise gastrointestinal symptom burden
Description
The severity of several gastrointestinal symptoms will be assessed on a validated 0-10 scale. Ratings will be collected every 5 minutes during a 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test. Scores from every 5-minute collection will be summed to calculate total GI symptom scores.
Time Frame
Total GI symptom burden over a 30-minute jogging/running protocol.
Title
Change in emotion ratings
Description
Anxiety, fear, happiness, amusement, disgust, sadness, and anger on a 0-9 Likert scale. Emotions will be assessed before watching video clips and immediately after watching video clips.
Time Frame
Change in emotion ratings between immediately pre-video and immediately post-video.
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Change over time in exercise heart rate
Description
Heart rate will be measured with a chest-strap (Polar) monitor.
Time Frame
Heart rate will be measured throughout a 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test. Change over time will be evaluated using mixed ANOVA.
Title
Substrate use
Description
Carbohydrate and fat oxidation rates will be estimated from the volumes of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production during exercise
Time Frame
Carbohydrate and fat oxidation rates will be measured during the last 5 min of a 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test.
Title
Feeling Scale
Description
The Feeling Scale is a bipolar numerical rating scale ranging from -5 to +5, with descriptors of "very bad" at -5, "neutral" at 0, and "very good" at +5.
Time Frame
Ratings on the Feeling Scale will be measured at rest before watching video clips and throughout (every 5 min) a subsequent 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test.
Title
Fatigue Scale
Description
The Fatigue Scale is Likert-type scale that ranges from 0 (Not Fatigued at All) to 10 (Total Fatigue).
Time Frame
Ratings on the Fatigue Scale will be measured at rest before watching video clips and throughout (every 5 min) a subsequent 30-minute treadmill jogging/running test.
Title
Heart rate post-video
Description
Heart rate will be measured with a chest-strap (Polar) monitor.
Time Frame
Heart rate will be recorded immediately after videos are viewed.
