Protein Requirements for Master Athletes: Just Older Versions of Their Younger Selves
Open accessAbstract
It is established that protein requirements are elevated in athletes to support their training and post-exercise recovery and adaptation, especially within skeletal muscle. However, research on the requirements for this macronutrient has been performed almost exclusively in younger athletes, which may complicate their translation to the growing population of Master athletes (i.e. > 35 years old). In contrast to older (> 65 years) untrained adults who typically demonstrate anabolic resistance to dietary protein as a primary mediator of the ‘normal’ age-related loss of muscle mass and strength, Master athletes are generally considered successful models of aging as evidenced by possessing similar body composition, muscle mass, and aerobic fitness as untrained adults more than half their age. The primary physiology changes considered to underpin the anabolic resistance of aging are precipitated or exacerbated by physical inactivity, which has led to higher protein recommendations to stimulate muscle protein synthesis in older untrained compared to younger untrained adults. This review puts forth the argument that Master athletes have similar muscle characteristics, physiological responses to exercise, and protein metabolism as young athletes and, therefore, are unlikely to have protein requirements that are different from their young contemporaries. Recommendations for protein amount, type, and pattern will be discussed for Master athletes to enhance their recovery from and adaptation to resistance and endurance training.
Overview
CoChat Summary
TL;DR
This narrative review argues that Master athletes (>35 years) are not simply older versions of untrained older adults: they largely avoid age-related anabolic resistance and appear to have protein requirements similar to younger athletes. It recommends applying current younger-athlete protein targets, with meal-focused intakes of ~0.3–0.5 g/kg and daily intakes around ~1.6–1.8 g/kg/day depending on training mode.
Key findings
- Master athletes are described as models of successful aging, with body composition, muscle mass, and aerobic fitness generally comparable to untrained adults more than half their age; the review argues they do not show the typical age-related anabolic resistance to dietary protein.
- In untrained older adults, an estimated average meal protein requirement of ~0.4 g/kg of high-quality leucine-enriched protein is needed to maximize myofibrillar protein synthesis at rest, ~65% greater than in younger adults; after exercise, 20 g whey is sufficient in young trained men, whereas older untrained adults may require up to 40 g.
- For Master athletes, the review recommends resistance training post-exercise protein of ~0.3–0.4 g/kg per meal and a daily target of ~1.6 g/kg/day; endurance training post-exercise protein of ~0.5 g/kg per meal and a daily target of ~1.8 g/kg/day, consumed as 4–5 equally spaced meals.
- Low-carbohydrate availability training may increase daily protein requirements by ~10–15%, and plant-based proteins may warrant a ~10% higher intake; Master athletes are reported to self-report lower post-exercise meal protein intakes than younger athletes (e.g., ~0.4 vs. ~0.3 g/kg, respectively).
Methods
- Narrative review synthesizing evidence on protein requirements, anabolic resistance, digestion/absorption, amino acid delivery and uptake, mTORC1 signaling, inflammation, sex differences, and bone health in aging and athletic populations.
- Focuses primarily on older adults/athletes (>60 years) while defining Master athletes as >35 years; evidence includes acute stable isotope dose–response studies, nitrogen balance, indicator amino acid oxidation, and training studies.
- No new primary data are presented; recommendations are extrapolated from younger athletes and older untrained adults because direct Master athlete protein dose–response studies are lacking.
Limitations
- The paper states that studies investigating post-exercise ingested bolus protein dose–response in Master athletes do not currently exist, and that additional research is needed, especially in females and postmenopausal women.
- The paper notes that studies often do not consistently report baseline physical activity or fitness, making some comparisons indirect; evidence from geographical activity differences is suggestive rather than definitive.
- Evident from the text: this is a narrative review without a systematic search or meta-analysis, and many recommendations rely on extrapolation from younger athletes or older untrained adults rather than direct Master athlete data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-14, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-14 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
