Exercise and the Timing of Snack Choice: Healthy Snack Choice is Reduced in the Post-Exercise State

Acute exercise can induce either a compensatory increase in food intake or a reduction in food intake, which results from appetite suppression in the post-exercise state. The timing of food choice—choosing for immediate or later consumption—has been found to influence the healthfulness of foods consumed. To examine both of these effects, we tested in our study whether the timing of food choice interacts with exposure to exercise to impact food choices such that choices would differ when made prior to or following an exercise bout. Visitors to a university recreational center were equipped with an accelerometer prior to their habitual workout regime, masking the true study purpose. As a reward, participants were presented with a snack for consumption after workout completion. Participants made their snack choice from either an apple or chocolate brownie after being pseudo-randomly assigned to choose prior to (“before”) or following workout completion (“after”). Complete data were available for 256 participants (54.7% male, 22.1 ± 3.1 years, 24.7 ± 3.7 kg/m2) who exercised 65.3 ± 22.5 min/session. When compared with “before,” the choice of an apple decreased (73.7% vs. 54.6%) and the choices of brownie (13.9% vs. 20.2%) or no snack (12.4% vs. 25.2%) increased in the “after” condition (X2 = 26.578, p \u3c 0.001). Our results provide support for both compensatory eating and exercise-induced anorexia. More importantly, our findings suggest that the choice of food for post-exercise consumption can be altered through a simple behavioral intervention

The purpose of this portfolio was to purposefully introduce and evaluate activities that are aimed at improving student learning and performance in HRTM 374 – Guest Services Management, a lecture-based 300-level course. Activities were designed to improve class preparation and ascertain student learning beyond exams. Objective 1: to assist students to identify the many ways that hospitality and tourism organizations can inspire positive guest service interactions, objective 2: To explain the various types of management principles that can encourage positive guest service interaction by employees and help understand brand loyalty that could also lead to positive guest experiences, objective 3: to understand the global perspectives of guest service practices in various countries in the lodging and restaurant industries, objective 4: to propose changes and enhancements to this course based on knowledge gleaned through the Peer Review of Teaching portfolio process. Overall, The Peer Review of Teaching portfolio process of reflecting and documenting my teaching was extremely helpful. The process helped me to access an important course in the HRTM curriculum through my instructional design. Using a Backwards Design approach was a very useful tool in helping me identify true course objectives, and I intend to use this approach for the development of new courses. I noticed a considerable improvement and changes between my techniques and students’ involvement in this course compared to previous years of teaching this course. This project provided me not only with the tools but also gave me the confidence to test new approaches so that ultimately more students receive a more meaningful education
