Participant descriptive for each supplement group. Participants were randomly assigned (n = 8/group; 4 males and 4 females per group) to their designated supplement group. No significant differences (p > 0.05), as determined via a one-way analysis of variance, were noted between groups for age, height, body mass, body fat percentage, or calorie or protein intake from day 42–day 52.
