The Effect of Specific Bioactive Collagen Peptides on Tendon Remodeling during 15 wk of Lower Body Resistance Training.
Quick Facts
What This Study Found
No significant differences in tendon adaptations were found between collagen peptide and placebo groups.
Key Numbers
How They Did This
The study was a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 39 young men who were randomized to receive either collagen peptides or a placebo during a resistance training program.
Why This Research Matters
Understanding the effects of collagen peptides on tendon health can inform athletes and trainers about effective supplementation strategies. This study suggests that collagen peptides may not provide additional benefits over a placebo for tendon adaptations during resistance training.
What This Study Doesn't Tell Us
The study was limited to a specific population of young, healthy men, which may not represent other demographics. Additionally, the duration of the study may not capture long-term effects.
