Previous
work from the same laboratory showed that resistance training
(performed at 30% 1RM to volitional fatigue (24 ± 3 repetitions
prolonged the muscle protein synthetic response compared to
(the same exercises performed at 90% 1RM (5 ± 1 repetitions
9). Although it is difficult to compare results across studies)
,which use different methodology and population cohorts
resistance training performed at 30% 1RM to volitional
fatigue appears to be an effective intervention to improve
indices of muscle accretion and strength in young adults and
postmenopausal women. W
