[QUOTE="sammmy, post: 184738, member: 38594"] Nice study but the effect of adding the protein/vitamin supplement is not impressive: total lean mass increased on average by 0.31 kg for the exercise-only group and 1.09 kg for the exercise-and-supplement group, body fat mass increased by 0.75kg (exercise-only) and decreased by -0.39 kg (exercise-and-supplement). The strength improvements look better in the supplemented group because they were strangely weaker at baseline, compared to the non supplemented group - looks like problem with randomization. The 5-times-Sit-to-Stand time decreases by about 1 seconds in both groups. The other 'ratios' reported are just mathematical mumbo-jumbo to make the unimpressive differences between groups sound more impressive. The bottom line is that the usual bodybuilding supplements (protein, creatine, vit D) do help but not by an impressive amount for slightly-obese older individuals that train with resistance bands. There is one gem in the data. This is the first study I see that clearly shows supplementation with protein/creatine increased the blood creatinine by 10%. This is for people monitoring kidney function. Also, the C-reactive protein increased in the supplement group but was 'not statistically significant' due to the small sample size of the group (n=16).
