| Alteration in one hour time trial after 3 month training and administration of collagen peptides compared to placebo | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary outcomes are to investigate the changes in blood lactate (aerobic and anaerobic thresholds), body composition (fat mass and fat free mass) and leg strength. Moreover, the alteration in the metabolic risk profile such as waist circumference, triglycerides, HDL- and LDL cholesterol. In addition, we want to compare the results with placebo. | — |
