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

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose was to investigate the effects of high-low resistance training (2 sets of leg press, chest press, hack squat and lat pull-down exercises performed to muscle fatigue at 80% baseline 1-repetition maximum [1-RM] immediately followed by repetitions to muscle fatigue at 30% baseline 1-RM) and creatine supplementation in aging adults. Participants were randomized to one of two groups: Creatine (CR: n = 14, 7 females, 7 males; 0.1 g/kg/day of creatine + 0.1 g/kg/day of maltodextrin; age = 58.0 ± 3.0 years) or Placebo (PLA: n = 17, 7 females, 10 males; 0.2 g/kg/day of maltodextrin; age = 57.6 ± 5.0 years) during 12 weeks of high-low resistance training (3 days/week). Prior to and following training and supplementation, assessments were made for body composition (whole-body lean tissue mass, fat mass, bone mineral), strength (1-RM for the leg press, chest press, hack squat and lat pull-down exercise), muscle endurance (total number of repetitions performed for 1 set using 70% baseline 1-RM for the chest press exercise and 80% 1-RM for the leg press exercise), tasks of functionality (hand-grip strength, balance, falls, walking speed), muscle protein catabolism (urinary excretion of 3-methylhistidine, 3-MH) and diet. Results showed that high-low resistance training improved lean tissue mass, muscle strength, endurance and tasks of functionality (p
Download or read book Osteosarcopenia Bone Muscle and Fat Interactions written by Gustavo Duque and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited work presents the most current evidence on osteosarcopenia from bench to bedside, which is expected to facilitate the understanding of this syndrome and to develop preventive and therapeutic strategies. With our aging population, chronic diseases such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia are becoming highly prevalent. Fortunately, our understanding of the bone and muscle interactions has increased in recent years. This has allowed to the coining of the term osteosarcopenia to describe a syndrome in which these two diseases overlap. This overlap between osteoporosis and sarcopenia has major negative effects not only on our older adults but also on health systems worldwide. Readers will find a highly translational approach that starts with a summary of recent discoveries on stem cells biology, muscle and bone interactions – including the role of local bone and muscle fat – followed by comprehensive reviews on myokines (i.e. myostatin), osteokines (i.e. osteocalcin) and adipokines (i.e. interleukins) as major players and determinants of bone and muscle loss with aging. In addition, the role of sex steroids (i.e. estrogens, androgens), and calciotropic hormones (i.e. parathyroid hormone, vitamin D) in the pathogenesis of this syndrome is also reviewed. Moreover, using practical diagnostic and therapeutic tips, this book summarizes the clinical characteristics of osteosarcopenic patients thus facilitating the diagnosis and treatment of this syndrome in clinical practice. Finally, the book presents the case for the Falls and Fractures Clinic as the optimal model of care for this syndrome, aimed to avoid fragmentation and optimize osteosarcopenia care, and simultaneously prevent falls and fractures in older persons. This book offers relevant information on the mechanisms of osteosarcopenia, and a practical guide on how to identify and treat this geriatric syndrome and its adverse outcomes, which are dramatically affecting our aging population. The work is written by leaders in the field and is especially suited not only to any researcher in the musculoskeletal arena but also to medical specialists and allied health professionals involved in the care of older persons.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effect of creatine supplementation dosing strategies on aging muscle performanceJ Chami, Author1, University of Regina, Regina, SK,D Candow, Author2, University of Regina, Regina SKIntroduction:Creatine supplementation has shown promise for increasing muscle strength, endurance and tasks of functionality during aging. Previousstudies indicatelow-dosage supplementation (0.1g/kg) for >6 weeks and high-dosage (0.3g/kg) for 5-7 days can increase intramuscular creatine which may subsequently benefit aging muscle performance. Proteins involved in sensing changes in osmolarity and signal transduction have been upregulated, along with proteins involved in satellite cell proliferation and differentiation in response to 10 days of creatine supplementation, independent of exercise.Objective:Comparedifferent creatine dosages independent of exercise on aging muscle performance and functionality.Methods: Using a double-blind, repeated measures design, participants were randomized to: Creatine-High (n = 11; 0.3 g/kg/day of creatine + 0.1 g/kg/day of maltodextrin), Creatine-Low (n = 9; 0.1 g/kg/day of creatine + 0.3 g/kg/day of maltodextrin) or Placebo (n = 11; 0.4 g/kg/day of maltodextrin) for 10 days. The DependentVariablesmeasured at baseline and after supplementation were muscle strength (1-RM leg, chest press, and hand grip), muscle endurance (leg, chest press; maximum repetitions at 80% and 70% baseline 1- RM), and tasks of functionality (walking speed, balance).Results: There was a significant increase over time for leg press strength (p = 0.000), chest press strength (p = 0.001), leg press endurance (p = 0.001) and chest press endurance (p = 0.001), with no differences between groups. There were no changes over time between groups for right-hand grip strength (p = 0.571), left-hand grip strength (p = 0.386), walking speed (p = 0.226) or falls (p = 0.414).Conclusion:short-term creatine supplementation, independent of dosage, has no effect on aging muscle performance.Significance to the field of Dietetics:Provide important information for the development of dietary and nutritionalsupplementation protocols for aging muscle health toprevent a lossof functional capacity and improve overall quality of life.

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.
