The purpose of this project is determine how acute mild dehydration impacts blood pressure control at rest and during static exercise. Additionally, we will determine whether or not the sympathetic nervous system has a role in mediating blood pressure control at rest and during static exercise. This protocol will test healthy young and older adults in a normally hydrated and dehydrated condition. This will allow for a within participant comparison. Additionally, we will later determine if age alters blood pressure control at rest or during static exercise.
