Book The Effects of a 12 week Resistance Training Program Combined with Casein Or Whey Protein Supplementation on Body Composition  Muscle Strength  and Markers of Satellite Cell Activation in Older Males

Download or read book The Effects of a 12 week Resistance Training Program Combined with Casein Or Whey Protein Supplementation on Body Composition Muscle Strength and Markers of Satellite Cell Activation in Older Males written by Annie G. Allison and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resistance training and protein supplementation have been shown to increase muscle mass and strength, and thus may be an effective method to combat muscle wasting (sarcopenia) that occurs with aging. Thirty-six males (62.5 yrs, 177 cm and 95.25 kg) were randomly assigned to ingest either whey isolate protein, casein protein or carbohydrate while participating in a 12-week high intensity resistance training program. Resistance training increased both upper and lower body strength, body mass and lean muscle mass while decreasing body fat percentage. However, no effects from training were observed on serum anabolic hormones and indirect markers of satellite cell activation. A trend towards significantly higher lower body strength was observed in the whey isolate (p=0.053) and casein (p=0.086) groups, respectively, compared to carbohydrate placebo group. The present study suggests protein supplementation in conjunction with high intensity resistance training may be important in combating sarcopenia.

Book The Effects of Combined Creatine Monohydrate Supplementation and Resistance Training on Body Composition  Muscle Strength  and Markers of Satellite Cell Activity in Older Males

Download or read book The Effects of Combined Creatine Monohydrate Supplementation and Resistance Training on Body Composition Muscle Strength and Markers of Satellite Cell Activity in Older Males written by Brian Brabham and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aging is associated with gradual loss of muscle mass, termed sarcopenia, which often leads to progressive disability and loss of independence. Though resistance exercise has shown to be an effective method at reducing the rate of age-related muscle loss and decline in force output; when combined with well known muscle building agents [such as creatine monohydrate (CrM)], these training-induced improvements are enhanced. To explore this idea further, a double-blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted on 20 males aged between 55-75 yrs at Baylor University, Waco TX. Participants were randomly assigned to consume either CrM [20g/d CrM + 5g Carbohydrate (CHO) x 7 days, then 5g/d CrM +5g CHO x 77 days] or carbohydrate placebo (20g/d CHO x 7 days, then 5g/d CHO x 77 days) while participating in a high intensity resistance training program (3 sets x 10 repetitions at 75% of 1RM), 3 days per week for 12 weeks. Testing sessions were complete prior to, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks post resistance training and supplementation. Each testing session included body composition measurement as determined by Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DEXA), muscle strength measurement as determined by 1 repetition maximum (RM) on leg press and bench press, blood collection and vastus lateralis muscle biopsy. The blood serum was analyzed for insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), free testosterone and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and the muscle tissue for phophorylated mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-Met), myogenic regulatory factors (MyoD, myogenin, Myf-5, MRF-4), and total myofibrillar protein. A significant time effect was observed for 1RM bench press (p=0.016), leg press (p

Book Effects of Creatine Monohydrate Tiing on Resistance Training Adaptations in Male and Female Collegiate Athletes

Download or read book Effects of Creatine Monohydrate Tiing on Resistance Training Adaptations in Male and Female Collegiate Athletes written by Nicholas Dinan and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: The timing of nutrient ingestion continues to be advocated by athletes, nutritionists, and coaches to augment potential exercise training adaptations. While creatine supplementation is well-established for its ergogenic potential, limited research is available on the potential impact of creatine monohydrate administration before or after workouts among athletes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pre- versus post-exercise creatine monohydrate supplementation on resistance training adaptations, body composition, and work capacity following 8-weeks of supplementation and resistance training. Methods: In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design, 34 health resistance-trained male and female athletes were randomly assigned and matched according to fat free mass to consume a placebo, or 5-g dose of creatine monohydrate within 1 hour before training, or within 1 hour after training for 8 weeks while completing a weekly resistance training program. At each time point all participants co-ingested a 25-gram dose whey isolate and a 25-gram dose of carbohydrate powder along with their assigned supplement. A 4-week non-supplementation period of resistance training occurred before the supplementation period to account for any early neuromuscular adaptations associated with starting a new program. Body composition using a 3-compartment field model, muscular strength and muscular endurance using bench press and back squat exercises along with isometric mid-thigh pull were assessed before and after the 8-week supplementation period. A 3 x 2 mixed factorial ANOVA with repeated measures on time were used to determine any statistically significant differences for time and group main effects and group x time interaction effects. Results: Over the training and supplementation period, all groups experienced a significant increase in fat free mass, upper and lower body strength, work capacity, and a decrease in body mass, fat mass, and percent body fat, with no differences observed between groups. Conclusions: Daily supplementation with carbohydrate plus protein with or without creatine monohydrate leads to significant increases in fat-free mass, performance indicators, and work capacity while the ingestion of, or timing creatine monohydrate did not seem to exert any additional influence over the measured outcomes. Retroactively registered on clinicaltrials.gov as NCT05451498.

Download or read book The Effects of Pre and Post Exercise Consumption of Multi Ingredient Performance Supplements on Cardiovascular Health and Body Composition in Trained Men After Six Weeks of Resistance Training written by Dennison David Thomas and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Background: The cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic health benefits or risks associated with consumption of multi-ingredient performance enhancing supplements (MIPS) in conjunction with periodized resistance training (RT) in resistance trained men are unknown. This population is a major target audience for performance supplements, and therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the combined effect of RT and commercially available pre- and post-exercise performance supplements, NO-Shotgun® (SHOT) and NO-Synthesize® (SYN), respectively, on CV risk and body composition in resistance trained men. Methods- Twenty-four resistance trained men completed 6 weeks (3 times/week) of whole-body periodized RT while either ingesting SHOT 30 min pre-exercise and SYN immediately post-exercise or an isocaloric maltodextrin placebo (PL) 30 min pre-exercise and immediately post-exercise. Before and after 6 weeks of RT and supplementation, resting heart rate (HR), blood pressures (BP), total body fat, android fat, gynoid fat, fat-free mass (FFM) and fasting blood measures of glucose, lipids, nitrate/nitrite (NOx), cortisol, and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured. Statistical analysis was conducted using a 2 x 2 (group x time) repeated measures ANOVA. Significance was set at p

Book The Effects of Consuming a High Protein Diet  4 4 G Kg D  on Body Composition in Resistance Trained Individuals

Download or read book The Effects of Consuming a High Protein Diet 4 4 G Kg D on Body Composition in Resistance Trained Individuals written by Applied Research Press and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consumption of dietary protein is important for resistance-trained individuals. It has been posited that intakes of 1.4 to 2.0 g/kg/day are needed for physically active individuals. Thus, the purpose of this investigation was to determine the effects of a very high protein diet (4.4 g/kg/d) on body composition in resistance-trained men and women. Consuming 5.5 times the recommended daily allowance of protein has no effect on body composition in resistance-trained individuals who otherwise maintain the same training regimen. This is the first interventional study to demonstrate that consuming a hypercaloric high protein diet does not result in an increase in body fat.

Book The Effects of Eight Weeks of Heavy Resistance Training and Branched Chain Amino Acid and Carbohydrate Supplementation on Muscle Performance and Body Composition

Download or read book The Effects of Eight Weeks of Heavy Resistance Training and Branched Chain Amino Acid and Carbohydrate Supplementation on Muscle Performance and Body Composition written by Sean Foster and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Branched chain amino acid supplements are becoming one of the more popular and well known supplements currently on the market. It is thought that branched chain amino acids support the body during resistance training by supplying the muscles with an excess supply of branched chain amino acids in order to quickly repair muscle, supplying the muscles with energy, and increasing muscle protein synthesis. This study evaluated how eight weeks of supplementation with branched chain amino acids and carbohydrates affected body composition and muscle performance in untrained males between the ages of 18 and 35. In other short term studies there are significant improvements that can be made with supplementation (Kerksick, et al., 2006). This study evaluated the long term effects that may be seen with supplementation.

Download or read book Body Composition Muscular Performance and Free Testosterone Following 12 weeks of Protein Supplementation and Resistance Training in Men Aged 35 55 written by Matthew Steven Stone and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of protein supplementation and Autoregulatory Progressive Resistance Exercise (APRE) training on measures of body composition, muscular performance, and free testosterone in middle-aged men. METHODS: Untrained males (n = 35; 43.3 ± 6.6 years) participated in this study. Lean mass (LM) and fat mass (FM) were measured via Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA), while strength was measured utilizing one repetition maximum (1RM), endurance measured using maximum repetitions completed (REPS) at 75% 1RM for the bench and leg press, and free testosterone was measured using changes in serum values. Subjects were randomly placed into one of four groups: protein (PO), APRE, protein plus APRE (PAPRE), or control (CON). Subjects repeated testing for the DEXA, 1RM, REPS, and blood draw every four weeks for 12 weeks. Both PO and PAPRE groups ingested 25g of supplemental protein twice daily. Subjects in the exercise groups completed a resistance training program, 3 days per week, for 12 weeks. RESULTS: Analysis revealed a significant time interaction (p .01) and a trend towards significance for group time interaction (p = .08) between baseline and week 12 for LM, with the APRE and PAPRE groups showing a significant increase following the 12-weeks. Significant time and group by time interactions (p
