“The reviewers concluded that their meta-analysis suggests that LLLT bolsters athletes' muscle strength, contract repetition number, and soreness recovery. However, the effects on other performance and recovery factors were inconclusive or showed no significant difference compared to the control group.”

“Because vitamin C plays such an important role in wound healing, the researchers subjected the participants to experimental wounds and then assessed the scar strength to gauge the effects of depletion.”

“A consequence of mitochondrial dysfunction is the loss of muscle mass and strength. Findings from a recent study suggest that urolithin A, a compound derived from walnuts and pomegranates, promotes mitophagy, increases muscle strength, and improves performance.”

“Higher protein intakes promote greater gains in muscle strength and mass For people training (especially with resistance exercise), total daily protein matters—and benefits accrue as you move from "adequate" to "optimized."”

“The participants improved their muscle strength, but the participants taking creatine improved just as much as participants receiving the placebo. Creatine did not enhance gains in muscle performance outcomes directly or indirectly by enhancing sleep.”

“However, the participants who consumed the protein-rich soup and exercised regularly showed improvements in waist circumference, walking distance, lower body strength, functional mobility, handgrip strength, nutritional status, serum triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, and DHEA-S.”

“Their analysis included 33 trials and more than 1,000 participants, about half of whom had a chronic disease. They found that creatine supplementation improved participants' handgrip strength, lean tissue mass, and upper-body muscle strength with few adverse effects.”

“Surprisingly, another large trial, STRENGTH, was stopped early due to the unlikelihood of producing a favorable outcome. The trial involved more than 13,000 people who were taking statins and had high cardiovascular risk who received 4 grams of EPA and DHA (via the drug Epanova, a free fatty acid form) or a placebo (corn oil) daily.”

“The comparison group performed conventional resistance training at about 70% of their 1RM without cuffs. Both training programs increased thigh muscle size and leg strength to a similar degree, even though the BFRT group used much lighter weights.”

“FTA: > By injecting MSCs into mouse leg muscles prior to several bouts of eccentric exercise (similar to the lengthening contractions performed during resistance training in humans that result in mild muscle damage), researchers were able to increase the rate of repair and enhance the growth and strength of those muscles in the exercising mice.”
