Muscle adaptation in response to a high-intensity interval training in obese older adults: effect of daily protein intake distribution.

CONCLUSION: A 12-week HIIT program is achievable and efficient to improve functional capacities as well as body composition in obese older adults. However, consuming at least 20 g of proteins in every meal does not further enhance muscle performance in response to a 12-week HIIT intervention.
