Among the adaptations to resistance training (RT), increased muscle cross-sectional area (i.e., muscle hypertrophy) has been associated with several health benefits in both women and men. A recent meta-analysis indicated that although there is no difference in relative hypertrophy, the mechanisms underlying hypertrophy may differ between sexes. Among these mechanisms, RT-induced androgen …
Among the adaptations resulting from resistance training (RT), the increase in cross-sectional area of muscle fibers and, consequently, of the entire muscle (i.e., muscle hypertrophy) may contribute to the prevention or mitigation of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and other comorbidities, thereby preventing premature death. However, several aspects are involved in the prescription of RT, which…
Introduction: Acute responses of DNA methylation levels in myogenic and satellite cell activation (CSs) genes may be the mechanisms that explain the lower gain of muscle mass after a period of endurance training (ET) associated with resistance training (RT) (i.e., concurrent training [CT]) compared to RT only. Purpose: To determine and compare the changes induced by a session RT, ET and C…
Resistance exercise (RE) is recommended broadly to prevent or attenuate obesity, type 2 diabetes and other comorbidities, avoiding premature death. However, several aspects involved in resistance training (RT) prescription and the mechanisms that are affected with acute RE and chronic RT practice are not well understood, precluding an RT design that provides a stimuli to promote optimized…
It is not yet established whether muscle damage plays an important role in the chronic hypertrophic process in response to strength training in humans, since the magnitude of muscle damage is significantly attenuated throughout training sessions. Therefore, the aim of this study is investigate if the attenuation of muscle damage during training sessions reduces the rate of myofibrillar pr…
To ensure continuous skeletal muscle hypertrophy throughout a resistance training (RT) program, it is recommended that the prescription follows the principle of progressive overload. One way to ensure progressive overload is by manipulating RT variables, such as volume (number of weekly sets per muscle group). Although the optimal magnitude of volume progression for maximizing muscle hype…

Resistance-training (RT) is widely recommended for improving health of several populations. However, several aspects involving RT and the affected mechanisms are not well understood, preventing a RT prescription that allows optimizing/maximizing gains in muscle mass (i.e., muscle hypertrophy). Thus, despite it is suggested that the adequate manipulation of RT variables such as load (inten…

Muscle hypertrophy induced by resistance training (RT) can be defined as the increase in cross-sectional area (CSA) muscle, due to the increase in extracellular content and/or increase in intracellular content (i.e., increase in muscle fiber CSA), due to the addition of myofibrils in the intracellular space and increased sarcoplasmic volume. The myofibrillar content makes up most of the m…
The individual hypertrophic responses to resistance training (RT) is highly variable and could be one of the main reasons why some RT protocols do not result in positive muscle adaptations in all individuals. Our group successfully investigated (FAPESP funded, #2012/24499-1, #2014/19594-0 and #2013/21218-4) the relation between acute integrated myofibrillar protein synthesis (MyoPS) and c…
