Exercise and Nutrition More Effective than Exercise Alone for Increasing Lean Weight and Reducing Resting Blood Pressure. JEPonline 2011;14(4):120-133. This study examined the effects of exercise alone and exercise and nutritional supplementation on lumbar spine bone mineral density, lean weight, and resting blood pressure. The subjects (N = 52) were placed into a Control Group [no exercise or nutritional supplements], an Exercise Group [strength training and aerobic activity; no nutritional supplementation]; and an Exercise and Nutrition Group [strength training and aerobic activity; supplementary protein, calcium, and vitamin D]. Changes in lumbar spine bone mineral density did not attain significance. Lean weight increased significantly in the Exercise and Nutrition Group. Resting SBP and DBP decreased significantly in the Exercise and Nutrition Group. These findings indicate that strength training, aerobic exercise, and nutritional supplements may be more effective than just exercise for increasing lean weight and for reducing resting blood pressure.
