Aging in Sports & Exercise<\/p>\n
This article provides an evaluation, as well as analysis of protein nutrition, exercise and aging. The question that I have acquired for this summary is, \u201cHow can the elderly decrease their chances of sarcopenia\u201d? I have predicted that strength conditioning and protein intake can help increase muscle size. The method used in this article involved strength training by lifting weights. The variable is muscle mass, because the muscle mass is changing depending on how frequently the elderly weight trains. On the other hand, the elderly as the target audience is the control of this article. The main results of this article is that aging takes a big toll and changes your body composition which leads to the increase of dietary protein needs. The findings are supported by this research because if you strength train, you\u2019re less likely to have muscle mass loss. The limitations of this study is that all elderly people have different activity levels. The applications of the findings is that the increase of dietary protein intake may enhance the hypertrophic response to weight exercises. Also demonstrated the elderly use of a protein-calorie supplement was associated with greater strength and muscle mass gains.<\/p>\n
