Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of 10 days of bed rest on skeletal muscle in healthy older adults.

TL;DR: A randomized controlled trial of nonpharmacologic Interventions in the Elderly and the Canadian Consensus Conference on Non-Pharmacological Approaches to the Management of High Blood Pressure, Mar. 21-23, 1989, Halifax, Nova Scotia found that non-pharmacological approaches to the management of high blood pressure and weight loss were effective in older persons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postexercise net protein synthesis in human muscle from orally administered amino acids.

TL;DR: It is concluded that ingestion of oral essential amino acids results in a change from net muscle protein degradation to net muscleprotein synthesis after heavy resistance exercise in humans similar to that seen when the amino acids were infused.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testosterone administration to elderly men increases skeletal muscle strength and protein synthesis.

TL;DR: It is concluded that increasing testosterone concentrations in elderly men increases skeletal muscle protein synthesis and strength, and this increase may be mediated by stimulation of the intramuscular IGF-I system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testosterone administration to older men improves muscle function: molecular and physiological mechanisms.

TL;DR: It is concluded that physiological and near-physiological increases of testosterone in older men will increase muscle protein anabolism and muscle strength.
