Effects of Resistance-band Training and Creatine and Whey Protein

The primary purpose of this research is to compare the effects of creatine monohydrate and/or whey protein supplementation during the first 10 weeks of a 20-week resistance-band training program on measures of body composition (whole-body lean tissue mass, total body water), arm and leg muscle thickness, upper- and lower-body muscle performance (i.e., strength, endurance) and functional ability (walking speed, balance). A secondary purpose of this research is to examine the effects of supplementation cessation (i.e., no creatine and/or whey protein supplementation) during the final 10 weeks of the 20-week resistance-band training program on these measures.
