Background: Effective hypertrophy-oriented resistance training (RT) should comprise a
combination of mechanical tension and metabolic stress. Regarding training variables, the …

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 …

The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass plays a critical role in health and quality of life.
One of the most potent regulators of skeletal muscle mass is mechanical loading, and …

Despite the lack of standardized terminology, building muscle and losing fat concomitantly
has been referred to as body recomposition by practitioners. Although many suggest that …

Cellular adaptations that occur during skeletal muscle hypertrophy in response to high-
volume resistance training are not well-characterized. Therefore, we sought to explore how …

Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated cells that contain mostly myofibrils suspended in
an aqueous media termed the sarcoplasm. Select evidence suggests sarcoplasmic …

Limited evidence exists regarding differentially expressed biomarkers between previously-
trained low versus high hypertrophic responders in response to resistance training. Herein …

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of weight training methods and rest interval,
maximum oxygen volume, flexibility, muscle strength, muscular endurance, and fat …

Resistance training generally increases skeletal muscle hypertrophy, whereas aging is
associated with a loss in muscle mass. Interestingly, select studies suggest that aging, as …
