as this study was concerned, claims of improved speed from
the supplements were rejected.
3xamination of Table V reveals the statistical results
of the one-minute squat thrust. This test was for endurance.
All three groups failed to make significant gains, but it could
be noted that Group I did make the greatest gain. This may
indicate that endurance is aided by the supplements; however,
it was not at the level of significance selected for this
study.
The bar graph in Figure 1 shows the results of the uri-
nalyses. For the first two weeks before the supplements were
given to Group I, or the placeboes given to Group XI, the three
groups wore fairly equal with no more than .02 mg./lOO ml. of
a difference on any day. Furthermore, they were close to a
normal reading of 20 mg./lOO ml. of urea nitrogen.
The third week was the start of the treatment period.
During the third and fourth week very little change was noticed.
Starting with the fifth week a change could be seen on the
bar graph. In the following weeks Group I showed an increase
in urea nitrogen, with a leveling off period toward the end of
the experiment. This indicates that the protein group was
utilizing the supplements in their body,
On the day of J;he sixth test, many of the subjects re-
vealed counts in excess of the maximum scale on the Azostix
color chart. This maximum scale was 60 mg./lOO ml. Those
high readings, pushed the mean of all three groups higher
