Strength training is commonly used as an intervention to increase muscle mass, thus improving a person's ability to undertake activities of daily living, or enhance athletic performance. The strength training regimen itself, while ultimately having beneficial effects, causes muscle fibers to be damaged, which the body has to recover from. As the body recovers, it rebuilds the muscle tissue and after multiple consecutive bouts of strength training, the muscle eventually becomes larger and stronger. Thus, it is the recovery from strength training exercise that ultimately determines how well the body adapts. Where inadequate recovery could eventually lead to overtraining and/or injury, optimizing the recovery process from strength training could maximize strength training adaptations. This concept of optimizing recovery has led to development of many supplements, including antioxidants, which may reduce the damage associated with strength training activities and therefore enhance positive adaptations. The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of a polyphenol rich supplementation to aid the recovery process from a demanding bout of resistance exercise

Inclusion Criteria:

• 6 months of resistance training experience with barbel back squat exercise

Exclusion Criteria:

• Not currently taking any antioxidant supplements, not currently using any hormone replacement therapy or anabolic androgenic steroids.

Must be male

To ensure that all subjects and researchers are unaware of the treatment assignments we will have one outside individual that will possess the knowledge of which subjects are given which supplement and which were given a placebo. This information will remain confidential until the study has been concluded. At the conclusion of the study, participants will be informed of which condition they were assigned. in an event of an emergency or the participant decides not to participate his condition will be revealed.
