简要总结
The primary aim of this study is to determine the effect of creatine supplementation on muscle mass loss during short-term immobilisation in healthy, young people.
详细描述
Seven days of one-legged knee immobilisation in young subjects with creatine or Placebo supplementation. A randomly selected leg is immobilized for seven days. Muscle mass and strength will be determined and muscle biopsies will be collected before and immediately after immobilisation. A week after the cast is removed we will assess any differences in recovery between intervention groups.
