简要总结
Purpose: to study the effect of insect protein on performance and hypertrophy during 8 weeks of resistance training.
Hypothesis: Insect protein supplementation enhances the effect of resistance training on muscle mass and muscle strength.
Primary outcome: Muscle hypertrophy and muscle strength
Design: Two groups of healthy young men (age: 18-30 years) with resistance training experience, but no structural resistance training performed for the last 12 months. Randomized controlled intervention study +/- insect protein (placebo group ingest isocaloric carbohydrate). Both groups perform 8 weeks of progressive resistance training (4/week) aiming to induce muscle hypertrophy.

研究组 & 干预措施
Insect protein group
Exercise + insect protein 8 weeks of 4/week progressive resistance training (2 days upper body, 2 days lower body). Insect protein supplementation (4g/kg) after each training + before sleep at training days, and once in the morning at non training days.
干预措施: Protein supplementation (Dietary Supplement)
Insect protein group
Exercise + insect protein 8 weeks of 4/week progressive resistance training (2 days upper body, 2 days lower body). Insect protein supplementation (4g/kg) after each training + before sleep at training days, and once in the morning at non training days.
干预措施: Resistance training (Other)
Placebo group
Exercise + isocaloric carbohydrate 8 weeks of 4/week progressive resistance training (2 days upper body, 2 days lower body). Carbohydrate supplementation (isocaloric to protein group) after each training + before sleep at training days, and once in the morning at non training days.
干预措施: Resistance training (Other)
