• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A

Summary

The effect of resistance training with post-exercise Collagen peptides (CP) supplementation on lean body mass, maximal and explosive, isometric muscle strength as well as fat mass, resting metabolism, health parameters and compared to resistance training alone will be evaluated in a group of untrained overweight male (30-60 yrs) population in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Detailed description

Participants will perform supervised resistance training involving (Leg press, pull down, chest press, back extension and abdominal crunches) 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Participants will consume either placebo or collagen peptides (in a double blinded study design) just following resistance training on training days (And approximately the same time of day on non-training days). Prior to, and following 12 weeks of exercise, participants will be tested in body composition, maximal and explosive, isometric muscle strength, resting metabolism, health parameters. Additionally, blood samples will be taken to ensure health and training eligibility and safety. Participants are healthy untrained overweight males (30-60 yrs)
