Twenty male volunteers will be sought from college recreation weight room. Participants will be excluded if they're females, physical education/ athletic training majors, or have been injured in last 6 months. A pretest of 1 Rep Max, jump-pad, 40 meter sprint, and frequency of lifting then a knowledge quiz will be given to determine group baseline. High-knowledge participants will be used as comparison group. Low-knowledge participants will receive and educational brochure about best practices for increasing muscular strength, including suggestions for protein intake. The quiz will be given immediately after brochure to test recall. A post-test of all previous measures will be performed 4 weeks after the initial testing. RMANOVA will be used to test statistical differences between groups and from pre-test and post-test with p= 0.10.
