TLDR
Net muscle protein synthesis in healthy elderly individuals following ingestion of an isocaloric intact whey protein supplement or an essential amino acid supplement is quantified to provide an energetically efficient anabolic stimulus.

Dietary protein recommendations and the prevention of sarcopenia.

TL;DR: Clinicians should stress the importance of ingesting a sufficient amount of protein with each meal to preserve skeletal muscle mass in ageing and propose a novel and specific dietary approach to prevent or slow down muscle loss with ageing.

Effects of Exercise and Amino Acid Supplementation on Body Composition and Physical Function in Community‐Dwelling Elderly Japanese Sarcopenic Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: To evaluate the effectiveness of exercise and amino acid supplementation in enhancing muscle mass and strength in community‐dwelling elderly sarcopenic women, a large number of women in this study are obese.

Exercise training and nutritional supplementation for physical frailty in very elderly people

TL;DR: High-intensity resistance exercise training is a feasible and effective means of counteracting muscle weakness and physical frailty in very elderly people, in contrast to multi-nutrient supplementation without concomitant exercise, which does not reduce muscle weakness orPhysical frailty.

An abundant supply of amino acids enhances the metabolic effect of exercise on muscle protein

TL;DR: It is concluded that the stimulatory effect of exogenous amino acids on muscle protein synthesis is enhanced by prior exercise, perhaps in part because of enhanced blood flow, implying that protein intake immediately after exercise may be more anabolic than when ingested at some later time.
