Improvement in Skeletal Muscle Strength and Plasma Levels of Follistatin and Myostatin Induced by an 8-Week Resistance Training and Epicatechin Supplementation in Sarcopenic Older Adults

; Woo, 2017 ). Various mechanisms may cause sarcopenia; however, the details of these mechanisms have remained unknown so far ( Narici & Maffulli, 2010 ). One of the mechanisms leading to sarcopenia is the reduction of muscle protein synthesis in response to anabolic stimuli ( Narici & Maffulli, 2010

More specifically, these researchers targeted skeletal muscle protein synthesis to characterize muscle health during bed rest. The aim of our investigation was embedded in a context similar to

In our study, the fact that both groups were ingesting less protein than recommended could have contributed to the lack of FFM gained as a result of RT because adequate levels of dietary protein are needed to support muscle protein synthesis. Despite there being

Indeed, in order to increase SMM, the rate of muscle protein synthesis must overcome muscle protein breakdown. During the supplementation days, the participants from this study reached an average

Therefore, it is classically recommended that athletes ingest a minimal amount of proteins (20 g or 0.3 g·kg body mass) every 3–4 hr, the time necessary to absorb, digest, and stimulate muscle protein synthesis
