Mechanisms underlying mechanical overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy have
been extensively researched since the landmark report by Morpurgo (1897) of “work …

Nuzzo, JL. Narrative review of sex differences in muscle strength, endurance, activation,
size, fiber type, and strength training participation rates, preferences, motivations, injuries …

The human ageing process is universal, ubiquitous and inevitable. Every physiological
function is being continuously diminished. There is a range between two distinct phenotypes …

Biopsies have been acquired from living men and women to determine proportions of Type I
(slow‐twitch) and II (fast‐twitch) skeletal muscle fibers since the 1970s. Sex differences have …

Background Older adults experience considerable muscle and bone loss that are closely
interconnected. The efficacy of progressive resistance training programs to concurrently …

Biological sex is a primary determinant of athletic performance because of fundamental sex
differences in anatomy and physiology dictated by sex chromosomes and sex hormones …

Background There is evidence that in older adults the combination of strength training (ST)
and endurance training (ET)(ie, concurrent training [CT]) has similar effects on measures of …

The effects of aerobic training (AT) on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), and resistance
training (RT) on muscular strength, are well known in older adults. However, less is known …

Introduction: If the aim is to increase maximal strength (MSt) and muscle mass, resistance
training (RT) is primarily used to achieve these outcomes. However, research indicates that …

Background Whole-body hydration status is associated with several health outcomes, such
as dehydration, edema and hypertension, but little is known about the nonclinical …
