August 28, 2017 -Magnesium (Mg) is an essential mineral that plays a critical role in the human body. It takes part in the process of energy metabolism and assists the maintenance of normal muscle function. A number of studies evaluated the association between Mg status/supplementation and exercise performance ...
Objective: The aim of our study was to investigate whether 12 wk of oral magnesium supplementation can improve physical performance in healthy elderly women. Design: In a parallel-group, randomized controlled trial, 139 healthy women (mean ± SD age: 71.5 ± 5.2 y) attending a mild fitness program were randomly allocated to a treatment group (300 mg Mg/d; n = 62) or a control group (no placebo or intervention; n = 77) by using a computer-generated randomization sequence, and researchers were blinded to their grouping.
September 1, 2014 -Volunteers were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 experimental groups by using a computer-generated sequence of 139 nonunique, unsorted numbers with a range from 1 to 2 representing the groups. The main investigator (NV) kept the allocation sequence confidential and assigned the women to one or the other group. Participants received 12 wk of supplementation with 900 mg/d of oral magnesium oxide corresponding to 300 mg bioavailable magnesium [Easymag (Sanofi-Aventis); treatment group] or no treatment (control group).
Furthermore, visual representations like the one above help us fully grasp the concept of Computer Generated Exercise Routines Emphasizing Magnesium.
