Abstract:Background and Objective. The rate of skeletal muscle protein synthesis (MPS) is the principal driving force underpinning the muscular adaptive response to resistance exercise (RE). This study aims to consolidate the literature, characterise MPS response to RE, and assess the impact of key covariates. Methods. Five electronic databases (PubMed (Medline), Web of Science, Embase, Sport Discus, and Cochrane Library) were searched for controlled trials that assessed the MPS response to RE in healthy, adult humans,… Show more
