Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To assess improvement in muscle strength after administration of Investigational Product (IP) as assessed by increase in Upper & lower body 1RM (Repetition Maximum) weightTimepoint: Day 0 to Day 30

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the effect of IP on improvement in grip strength as indicated by increase in non-dominant hand grip strength.Timepoint: Day 0 to Day 30;To assess the effect of IP on improvement in metabolic health as indicated by waist to height ratio.Timepoint: Day 0 to Day 30;To assess the effect of IP on improvement in muscle mass as indicated by increase in fat free mass (FFM), lean muscle mass and android fat by DXA.Timepoint: Day 0 to Day 30;To assess the effect of IP on increase in muscle endurance as assessed by increase in exercise volume calculated as load multiplied by number of repetition (upper and lower body exercise) completed at more than equal to 70 percent of Screening 1 RM.Timepoint: Day 0 to Day 30;To assess the effect of OP on Increase in muscle (hamstring) flexibility as assessed by increase in distance for V sit and reach test.Timepoint: Day 0 to Day 30.
