Purpose: To evaluate the acute and chronic effects of a botanical supplement on strength, muscle function, and lean body mass Participants: The acute phase will include 30 participants, and the chronic phase will include 84 participants. All participants must be healthy recreationally active males between the ages of 18 and 35 years.
