Previous claim: Resistance exercise increases muscle mass but _________ exercise does not
endurance
Previous claim: High external loads increase muscle mass but ______ do not
low loads
Previous claim: Acute changes in hormones following resistance exercise are _______ for increasing _________
important; muscle mass
Current claim: Endurance exercise can
coexist with strength training
Current claim: Slow walking combined with _____ can increase muscle mass
BFR
Current claim: Low loads increase muscle mass similar to
high loads
Current claim: Acute changes in hormones following resistance exercise _____ appear to change muscle mass
do not
What % of 1 RM grows muscle
30 & 80
80% 1 RM for how many reps results in an increase in strength adaptation
1 & 3
Testosterone begins to decrease after ______ in the high hormone group
15 minutes
Which is better for growing muscle, high or low hormones?
Same effect
Results: Work-induced growth of skeletal muscle in normal and hypophysectomized rats
Growth evident within 24 hours
Growth reached maximal extent by 5 days
Support conclusion that pituitary growth hormone is not essential for skeletal muscle hypertrophy
Two types of muscle growth distinguished: GH-dependent, work-induced
Local mechanism of hypertrophy
calcium kinetics (specifically in heart for skeletal muscle)
Periodization definition
an exercise system, if design correctly, that helps to prevent overtraining while optimizing peak performance through progressive cycles
During periodization, as intensity increases, reps _____
decrease
Undulating Perioidzation
where volume and intensity go up and down weekly or daily within the training period
Amino acid transport across the cell increases
MPS
Results: the effects of supraphysiologic doses of testosterone on muscle size and strength in normal men
No exercise grp similar during baseline, by 10 weeks testosterone grp had effectiveness
Exercise groups had high increases in testosterone without supplementation, by 10 weeks testosterone supplementation group had effectiveness
Testosterone increased BW
Exercise increased FFM
Exercise + Testosterone significant in all CSA and weight lifted; most robust
Growth hormone lowers
glucose utilization and glycogen synthesis
Growth hormone increases _____ and enhances ______
amino acid transport across cells, fatty acid breakdown, collagen growth, and cartilage growth; immune cell function
Collagen growth increases
protein synthesis
Results: Hormonal and growth factor responses to heavy resistance exercise protocols
10 RM group had more growth due to being in the hypertrophy range
Growth hormone in 10 RM group was high showing growth hormone has anabolic properties
Results: Muscular adaptations to combinations of high and low intensity resistance exercises
Hypertrophy group had the highest growth hormone concentration
Point of diminishing returns during strength phase
MVC testing good for strength due to specificity
If the acute hormone hypothesis is true, which group in the ** Muscular adaptations to combinations of high and low intensity resistance exercises ** study would have more of an increases in muscle hypertrophy?
combo group more than strength group; hypertrophy should be minimal in strength group due to low amounts of circulating hormones
