Muscle protein synthesis rate
Lifestyle interventions such as physical activity and dietary habits are the most effective
 non-pharmacological strategies to combat the loss of muscle mass and the development of
 mobility limitations with aging. Resistance training (i.e., strengthening exercise) provides
 a strong stimulus to build muscle mass, and protein provides the essential building blocks.
 Therefore, an individual's dietary practices can influence the effectiveness of an exercise
 program - when combined, they work together to increase the muscle-building response.
 However, not all proteins are equally effective at bringing about muscle growth.
 
 Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a higher-quality
 plant-based protein blend with lifting weight on muscle building in older men and women.
