Effects of whey isolate, creatine, and resistance training on muscle hypertrophy
Article Abstract:
The effects of two popular supplements, whey protein (WP) and creatine monohydrate (CrM) on body composition, muscle strength, fiber-specific hypertrophy and contractile protein accrual are examined during resistance exercise (RE) training. The results lead to conclusion that although WP and/or CrM seem to promote greater gains and muscle morphology during RE training, the hypertrophy responses within the groups varied.

Effects of supplement timing and resistance exercise on skeletal muscle hypertrophy
Article Abstract:
The effects of supplement timing is compared with supplementation in the hours not close to the workout on muscle-fiber hypertrophy, strength, and body composition during a 10-week resistance exercise (RE) program. This comparison shows that supplement timing results in greater strength and body composition improvements as well as muscle hypertrophy, compared with supplementation at times outside of the workout period.

The effect of whey isolate and resistance training on strength, body composition, and plasma glutamine
Article Abstract:
The effects of a hydrolyzed whey isolate (WI) with Casein (C) supplementation on strength, body composition, and plasma glutamine during a ten week intense resistance training program is discussed. It is seen that both the supplements did not have an effect on plasma glutamine values and the group that consumed whey isolate showed a greater gain in lean body mass and strength.
