It's not just soft power. It is also economic power. Also, note that there is a baseline 10% on all countries.

Can you explain the stats to give me the proper N for when this experiment would be properly powered?

You are misinterpreting the study. They are interested in the change in lean body mass wash-in to post RT because that is the lean body mass that can be attributed to more than just the initial increase from simply taking creatine. The in

In the introduction they talk about creatine loading. Also, their study is looking at lean body mass changes after the "wash-in" period, so any effect that increased recovery is supposed to have on lean body mass when following t

They are asking beginners in both the control and test arm, so it sounds like they have "proven" something (or at least given good evidence).
