We examined whether creatine monohydrate (CrM) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) could
enhance strength gains and improve body composition (i.e., increase fat-free mass (FFM);
decrease body fat) following resistance exercise training in older adults (> 65 y). Our study
hypothesized that administering CrM and CLA would yield greater strength and body composition
benefits than the placebo group over the six months of resistance exercise
