Study Arms (3)

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants will receive a flavored water placebo supplement. Part of the supplemental intervention. This, and all groups, simultaneously took part in the exercise intervention.

Dietary Supplement: Supplemental; Other: Exercise Intervention

ElevATP

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive the flavored water placebo with an additional 150mg of ElevATP (blend of ancient peat and apple extracts). Part of the supplemental intervention.This, and all groups, simultaneously took part in the exercise intervention.

Dietary Supplement: Supplemental; Other: Exercise Intervention

ElevATP w/Caffeine

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive the flavored water placebo with an additional 150mg of ElevATP (blend of ancient peat and apple extracts), a 180 mg blend of caffeine (caffeine anhydrous, pterostilbene-bound caffeine), and 38mg B vitamins. Part of the supplemental intervention.This, and all groups, simultaneously took part in the exercise intervention.

Dietary Supplement: Supplemental; Other: Exercise Intervention
