Leg strength
upin humans1
Protein supplementation + exercise training improves leg strength in humans (Leg strength SMD 0.37, p < 0.00001; walking speed SMD 0.32, p = 0.002).
“leg strength (SMD = 0.37; p < 0.00001), and walking speed (SMD = 0.32; p = 0.002)”

Protein supplementation + exercise training increases lean mass in humans (SMD 0.52; p < 0.00001).

Protein supplementation + exercise training improves frailty status in humans (OR 2.77; p = 0.006 for improved frailty status).
“PS plus exercise training significantly improved the frailty status (odds ratio = 2.77; p = 0.006)”
