The primary focus of this commentary is to discuss the relationship between training-induced
increases in muscle size (ie, hypertrophy) and changes in strength. Recently, Buckner et al …

In this paper we revisit a topic originally discussed in 1955, namely the lack of direct
evidence that muscle hypertrophy from exercise plays an important role in increasing …

Skeletal muscle is highly adaptable and has consistently been shown to morphologically
respond to exercise training. Skeletal muscle growth during periods of resistance training …

Science and Development of Muscle Hypertrophy, Second Edition, is the most
comprehensive resource on muscle hypertrophy in the world. Written by Brad Schoenfeld …

Skeletal muscle is an extremely dynamic tissue with a remarkable capacity for adapting,
both structurally and physiologically, to different forms of functional overload. A functional …

It is well known that resistance exercise results in increased muscle strength, but the cause
of the improvement is not well understood. It is generally thought that initial increases in …

Skeletal muscle hypertrophy commonly occurs with repeated bouts of resistance exercise as
well as following the administration of exogenous drugs. This increase in muscle size is …

Abstract EMERGING EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THAT TYPE I FIBERS DISPLAY A
SUBSTANTIAL PROPENSITY FOR GROWTH IF THEY ARE SELECTIVELY TARGETED VIA …

Studies examining resistance training are of importance given that increasing or maintaining
muscle mass aids in the prevention or attenuation of chronic disease. Within the literature, it …

Skeletal muscle displays considerable biochemical complexity, physiological plasticity, and
cellular heterogeneity (Ohlendieck, 2010). It is well-recognized that resistance training (RT) …
