Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in engineered ligament collagen content and mechanics. Engineered ligaments will be grown in serum taken a each time point for each treatment[Baseline and 1 hour post ingestion of treatment. This is assessed in arm 1 only.];Change in serum amino-terminal propeptide of collagen I (PINP) content over time in response to treatment and exercise[Pre treatment ingestion (baseline), 4, 24, 48, and 72 hours. This outcome is assessed in arm 2 only]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in serum amino acid availability after the ingestion of the treatment[Pre treatment (basleline), 30 minutes, 1, 1.5, 2 and 3 hours post ingestion of treatment. This outcome is in relation to arm 1.]
