简介
Key points
  • Resistance exercise training (RET) is one of the most effective strategies for preventing declines in skeletal muscle mass and strength with age.
  • Hypertrophic responses to RET with age are diminished compared to younger individuals.
  • In response to 6 weeks RET, we found blunted hypertrophic responses with age are underpinned by chronic deficits in long‐term muscle protein synthesis.
  • We show this is likely to be the result of multifactorial deficits in anabolic hormones and blunted translational efficiency and capacity.
  • These results provide great insight into age‐related exercise adaptations and provide a platform on which to devise appropriate nutritional and exercise interventions on a longer term basis.
Abstract
Ageing is associated with impaired hypertrophic responses to resistance exercise training (RET). Here we investigated the aetiology of ‘anabolic resistance’ in older humans. Twenty healthy …
