Brief Summary: Protein is an essential nutrient that one's diet to maintain important bodily functions and to recover from exercise. Currently, the Indicator Amino Acid Oxidation method (IAAO) has been used to determine protein requirements in a variety of populations including children, neonates, the elderly and recently, resistance trained populations. This study serves to test the robustness of the IAAO method and to determine if high habitual dietary protein intake, as seen in resistance trained males, has the potential to influence the protein requirements determined by the IAAO method. Further, the current study also aims to determine how the body metabolizes or uses dietary protein and how it might change when consuming a protein intake that is less than what is habitually consumed.
Detailed Description: This study employed a two-phase randomized crossover design, where participants performed both a High/Habitual protein phase and a moderate protein phase. The Habitual protein phase is designed to model resistance trained individual's habitual protein consumption by providing 2.2g/kg/d in a controlled diet. The Moderate protein phase is designed to investigate the impact of decreasing dietary protein intake to a moderate amount (1.2g/kg/d) over five days on protein metabolism. Both phases used the stable isotope L-\[1-13C\]Phenylalanine and metabolic trails were modelled after the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique.

High Protein Phase The high protein phase is three days in length, with diet-controlled throughout, and a metabolic trail on day 3. Participants will perform whole-body resistance exercise on days one and three.

Moderate protein phase The Moderate protein phase is seven days in length, with MT on days three, five and seven. Dietary intake will be controlled throughout the whole phase providing either 2.2 g/kg/d of protein (days one and two), or 1.2 g/kg/d (days three through seven). Full body resistance exercise will be performed performed on days one, three, five and seven.

This phase will allow measurement of protein metabolism over five days following a decrease in dietary protein intake, and to determine the effect of dietary changes on the IAAO method.
