There are several limitations of the current
work. The study was conducted at a
private, West Coast university where the
culture is generally one of fitness and high
physical activity. However, this is
conservative to the hypotheses; it is
possible the effects would be more
pronounced in a population where regular
exercise and fitness was not the norm. Also,
the study was conducted in a laboratory
setting; in a gym there are arguably many
other types of stimuli in view during
aerobic activity.
