Ingestion of protein prior to and/or following resistanceexercise (RE) has been reported to stimulate protein synthesis [...]

Obesity is associated with many negative health outcomes. Diet and exercise has been shown to reduce obesity and various other factors linked to poor health […]

Consumption of caffeine-containing liquid energy supplements has increased dramatically over the past several years [...]

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) has been shown to regulate rates of muscle protein synthesis, and one novel nutritional activator of mTOR is the phospholipid Phosphatidic Acid (PA). [...]

A protein kinase called the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a well-known regulator of cellular growth [...]

Based on laboratory studies performed through decades, it is suggested that carbohydrate intake during prolonged exercise improves performance [...]

Background Popular sports supplements contain a number of ingredients claiming to increase performance and enhance muscle gain. Product specific research is important for identifying efficacy of combined ingredients. The purpose of this study was to...

The purpose of this study was to establish the reliability of an interactive choice reaction testing device (Makoto II Arena) to determine the efficacy of the device as it relates to the field of strength and conditioning and sports nutrition researc...

Green tea, caffeine, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and branched chain amino acids (BCAA) have shown to individually improve body composition and metabolic rate in overweight and obese individuals [...]

Caffeine and chlorogenic acid are two compounds in green coffee beans that alter blood glucose disposal and insulin sensitivity [...]

Background: Creatine monohydrate is known to prolong time to fatigue and training volume during resistance training while ingestion of whey protein in the post-exercise window is critical to maximize adaptations. Individually, research supports that...

Co-ingesting creatine (5 g) with large amounts of glucose (e.g., 95 g) has been shown to enhance creatine and carbohydrate storage in muscle […]

The glycerophospholipid Phosphatidic acid (PA) has been identified as a potential nutritional treatment for gastrointestinal disorders[...]

Background An intact composition of extracellular matrix (ECM) collagens, proteoglycans and elastic fibres are responsible for the constitutional strength of tendons and ligaments [1,2] [...]

Background Obesity has been associated with inflammation. However, the mechanisms are not well understood [...]

Purpose This study determined the effects of eight weeks of heavy resistance training combined with branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation on body composition and muscle performance […]

Background Overtraining syndrome (OTS) is a stress-related phenomenon experienced by elite-level and recreational athletes alike [...]

Various weight loss supplements are commercially available and are composed of a wide variety of ingredients [...]

Chronic supplementation with creatine monohydrate has been shown to promote increases in intramuscular total creatine, phosphocreatine, skeletal muscle mass, lean body mass and muscle fiber size[...]

Few post-workout products have been properly investigated in finished commercial form [...]

Background While over the counter weight loss products have grown into one the largest categories of nutritional supplements, most advertising claims for these products are limited to proven effects of individual ingredients and generally demonstrate...

Athletes have a choice of different animal (e.g. whey, casein, egg, beef, fish) or plant protein (e.g. soy, rice, pea, hemp) sources, which differ in numerous ways such as the presence of allergens (lactose, soy), cholesterol, saturated fats, digesti...

The accretion of skeletal muscle tissue can be critical for a varied population including athletes and elderly [...]

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a physiologically demanding sport that requires athletes to compete in weight restricted classes

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of participating in a resistance-exercise based circuit training program while adhering to a higher protein diet designed to preserve fat free mass (FFM) during weight loss on body composition an...

Extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is hypothesized to stimulate vasodilation by binding to endothelial ATP/UTP-selective P2Y2 receptors [...]

Introduction: Adenosine-Triphosphate (ATP) supplementation maintains performance and increases volume under high fatiguing contractions [...]
