Summary

This study evaluates the effect of different types of diets (high and normal protein) on lean and fat mass, and strength in postmenopausal women practitioners of resistance exercise. Two groups will be created: high protein (1.2 protein g/body mass/day) and normal protein (0.8 protein g/body mass/day). The same training will be performed for both groups.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

High protein

To observe the effect of a high protein (HP) diet over muscle mass, fat mass, and strength changes, focusing in differences between the NP and HP groups.

OTHER

Normal protein

To observe the effect of a normal protein (NP) diet over muscle mass, fat mass, and strength changes

OTHER

Training

The physical strength training will be performed equally by both groups, containing exercises for upper and lower limbs and aiming for hypertrophy.
