Brief Summary:
The primary purpose is to compare the effects of creatine supplementation bolus ingestion of 5 grams vs 3 grams during 16 weeks of resistance-band training on measures of body composition ie whole-body lean tissue mass total body water arm and leg muscle thickness growth muscle performance ie power strength endurance and functional ability ie walking speed balance
A secondary purpose of this research is to examine the effects of bolus ingestion of creatine 5 grams compared to intermittent ingestion of creatine 2 x 25 grams during 16 weeks of resistance-band training on measures of body composition ie whole-body lean tissue mass total body water arm and leg muscle thickness growth muscle performance ie power strength endurance and functional ability ie walking speed balance

Detailed Description:
Resistance-band training is safe conveient easy-to-use eliminates potential barriers to exercise participation ie lack of transportation to and from commercial training facilities and results in high exercise compliance and adherence Further resistance-band training results in similar improvements in muscle performance and functional ability compared to traditional resistance-type training using free-weights and machines
Creatine is a naturally occurring nitrogen-containing compound produced in the body in the liver and brain and can also be found in food products such as red meat and seafood or through commercially available manufactured creatine products
Evidence-based research shows that creatine supplementation when ingested during a resistance exercise training program improves measures of lean mass and muscle growth muscle performance and functional ability However the optimal creatine supplementation protocol to achieve these benefits is unknown
