Brief Summary:
The primary purpose of this research is to compare the effects of creatine monohydrate andor whey protein supplementation during the first 10 weeks of a 20-week resistance-band training program on measures of body composition whole-body lean tissue mass total body water arm and leg muscle thickness upper- and lower-body muscle performance ie strength endurance and functional ability walking speed balance A secondary purpose of this research is to examine the effects of supplementation cessation ie no creatine andor whey protein supplementation during the final 10 weeks of the 20-week resistance-band training program on these measures
Detailed Description:
Sarcopenia characterized by the age-related reduction in strength muscle mass and physical function decreases the ability to perform activities of daily living Physical inactivity and inadequate nutrition are contributing factors to the development of sarcopenia Resistance training is a safe viable and effective intervention which increases measures of muscle and bone mass muscle performance ie strength endurance and functional ability in older adults However older adults indicate that high costs and difficulty finding training programming andor facilities are barriers to participating in resistance training Home-based resistance-band training is safe effective and serves as a viable alternative to traditional resistance training ie involving free-weights and machine-based equipment From a healthy aging perspective resistance-band training elicits similar improvements in strength primary indicator of sarcopenia and functional ability compared to traditional resistance training in older adults In addition to resistance training involving resistance-bands creatine and whey protein supplementations have also been shown to have favorable effects on measures of muscle bone and functional ability in older adults However no study has examined the effects of resistance-band training and creatine and whey protein supplementation in older adults
