Pair - fed
mice lost only 5 percent of bodyweight, and their
lean mass
did not change appreciably; leucine deprived
mice lost 15 percent of body - weight, and their
lean mass was the same as the control
mice, and unchanged.There were no strength or endurance challenges, but when one considers that the
mice lost 50 percent of abdominal fat, 15 percent of bodyweight, and had no loss of
lean mass, that is incredible.
And wait we
do; despite the
lean ninety - minute runtime, Downrange can't quite figure out enough variations on their cat - and -
mouse situation to keep the final two acts from devolving into a boring slog.
