What this trial measures
- Change in renal vascular resistance during acute exercisePre-acute exercise and during 5 minutes of steady-state exercise
For the acute exercise intervention, the percent change from pre-acute exercise to during steady-state exercise will be assessed.
- Change in renal vascular resistance during cold pressor testPre-cold pressor test to after 30, 60, 90, and 120 seconds of cold pressor test
For the cold pressor test intervention, the percent change from pre-cold pressor test to 30-second intervals during the cold pressor test will be assessed.
- Change in renal vascular resistance during mental stress testPre-mental stress test to after 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 minutes of mental stress test
For the mental stress test intervention, the percent change from pre-mental stress test to 1-minute intervals during the mental stress test will be assessed.
