Journal ArticleDOI

Protein Blend Ingestion Following Resistance Exercise Promotes Human Muscle Protein Synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, a double-blind, randomized, clinical trial was conducted to investigate the effect of protein blend of soy and whey proteins on the fractional synthetic rate (FSR) following resistance exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rates of Acute Care Admissions for Frail Older People Living with Met Versus Unmet Activity of Daily Living Needs

TL;DR: To determine whether older people who do not have help for their activity of daily living (ADL) disabilities are at higher risk for acute care admissions and whether entry into a program that provides for these needs decreases this risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

A moderate acute increase in physical activity enhances nutritive flow and the muscle protein anabolic response to mixed nutrient intake in older adults

TL;DR: The data indicate that a prior bout of aerobic exercise increases the anabolic effect of nutrient intake in older adults, mediated by an exercise-induced improvement in nutrient-stimulated vasodilation and nutrient delivery to muscle rather than to improved insulin signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility and Acceptability of a Wearable Technology Physical Activity Intervention With Telephone Counseling for Mid-Aged and Older Adults: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial

TL;DR: Effect sizes were similar to the sizes found using other wearable electronic activity monitors, indicating that when combined with telephone counseling, wearable activity monitors are a potentially effective tool for increasing physical activity and decreasing sedentary behavior.
