Key points Skeletal muscle hypertrophy is one of the main outcomes from resistance training
(RT), but how it is modulated throughout training is still unknown. We show that changes in …

It is well established that regimented resistance training can promote increases in muscle
hypertrophy. The prevailing body of research indicates that mechanical stress is the primary …
