Summary
This trial will explore how peanut consumption impacts exercise training adaptations like muscle strength, muscle mass, & cardiorespiratory fitness in middle-aged men & women.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy, non-smoking men and women aged 30-55 who haven't trained in the last 6 months. They should not be trying to change their weight, have a BMI under 35, and no medical conditions that interfere with exercise or require special diets. People with unstable heart conditions, diabetes, hormone therapies, pregnancy or attempting it, certain disorders or allergies to peanuts/dairy can't join.
What is being tested?
The study tests how eating peanuts after workouts affects muscle strength gains and improvements in cardio fitness from combined resistance and aerobic exercises over time in middle-aged adults.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves consuming peanuts post-exercise, potential side effects may include allergic reactions for those sensitive to nuts. Exercise might cause muscle soreness or injury if not done correctly.
