Whey protein supplementation significantly increases biceps curl strength and lower limb lean mass in postmenopausal women, but ONLY when combined with resistance training.

If you are a postmenopausal woman looking to build muscle or strength, whey protein alone will not do it. You must combine whey protein (20-40g) with resistance training (2-3 times a week). The combination significantly boosts arm strength and leg muscle mass, whereas protein without exercise offers no muscle benefit.
