Does Exercise Snacking Improve Muscle Function in Older Adults?

"Each bout of exercise snacking consists of 5 exercise. Each exercise is performed for one minute, with aim of completing as many repetitions as possible of that exercise in that minute. One minute of rest is observed between each exercise of the exercise snack. The five exercises are; sit-to-stand from a chair, marching on the spot, seated knee extensions alternating legs, standing knee bends alternating legs, and standing calf raises. The sit-to-stand exercise is always performed first, with the number of repetitions achieved recorded, and subsequent exercises performed in any order without recording of repetitions.~Two exercise snacks are completed each day for 28 days; once in the morning and once in the evening, or at least separated by 2 hours."

Participants are asked to consume 150 g of yogurt (Arla, Skyr- natural flavour) with their breakfast meal. Participants may substitute the yogurt for another part of their regular breakfast, or add the yogurt to their regular breakfast, with participants asked to record a log book of daily yogurt consumption and to complete a three day food diary during the last week of the 28 day intervention period.
