Methodology
Randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of collagen peptide supplementation combined with resistance training in older men.
Key Findings
Collagen peptides improved fat-free mass and muscle strength versus placebo, supporting connective tissue adaptation to loading.
Conclusions
Collagen peptides plus loading support connective tissue and musculoskeletal adaptation.
Limitations
Older male population only; ligament-specific imaging not performed.
Supplements Studied
Collagen peptides improved fat-free mass and muscle strength versus placebo
Outcomes Measured
Collagen peptides improved fat-free mass and muscle strength versus placebo, supporting connective tissue adaptation to loading
