Inclusion criteria

* Single dose cohort * Overtly healthy males or females, as determined by medical history and physical examination * Between the ages of 24 and 50 years * Multiple dose cohorts * Sedentary males and females with stable medical problems, if any, that, in the investigator's opinion, will not place the subject at increased risk by participating in the study and will not interfere with interpretation of the data * Between the ages of 50 and 85 years * Score \<600 Metabolic Equivalent Tasks (METs) per week based on International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) * All subjects * Male subjects: agree to use a reliable method of birth control * Female subjects: women not of child-bearing potential due to surgical sterilization (at least 6 weeks post-surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy or tubal ligation) confirmed by medical history, or menopause * Up to third generation Japanese, that is defined as all of the subject's biological grandparents are of exclusive Japanese descent and have been born in Japan * Are ambulatory and able to perform a stair climb test * Have clinical laboratory tests within normal reference range for the population or investigator site, or results with acceptable deviations that are judged to be not clinically significant by the investigator * Have venous access sufficient to allow for blood sampling and/or administration of investigational product for intravenous administration

Percentage Change in Thigh Muscle VolumeBaseline, Day 22 for a single dose arm/ baseline, Days 22 and 71 for multiple dose armsThigh muscle volume was determined by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan of the right leg thigh muscle. Percentage change in thigh muscle volume=(time point value-baseline value)\*100. Change from baseline for muscle volume was analyzed using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model with fixed effects of treatment, time and treatment\*time interaction and a random effect of subject where baseline values were included as a covariate.
