Description: Subjects will perform static handgrip at 40% of maximum voluntary contraction until fatigue.

Intervention type: DRUG
Group type: EXPERIMENTAL
Intervention: Dexmedetomidine
Description: Subjects will be given dexmedetomidine to suppress sympathetic outflow to minimize sympathetic control over resting heart rate. Subjects will then be given glycopyrrolate to suppress parasympathetic tone to minimize parasympathetic control over resting heart rate. After achievement of autonomic blockade, cardiac beta receptor sensitivity will be assessed by graded infusions of isoproterenol until heart rate increases 30 beats above baseline.
