TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - The Physiology of Resistance Training A1 - Powers, Scott K. A1 - Howley, Edward T. A1 - Quindry, John PY - 2021 T2 - Exercise Physiology: Theory and Application to Fitness and Performance, 11e AB - ObjectivesBy studying this chapter, you should be able to do the following:Identify the neural pathways involved in muscle contraction.Contrast the role of neural adaptations versus increases in muscle mass and fiber specific force production on the increase in strength following resistance training.Describe the impact of aging on strength and the influence of resistance training on strength in older individuals.Discuss the resistance training–induced changes that occur in the nervous system that contribute to increases in muscle strength.Identify the biochemical changes that occur in skeletal muscle fibers in response to resistance training.Describe the resistance training–induced changes that occur in tendons, ligaments, and bone.Discuss the time course of muscle protein synthesis following a bout of resistance exercise.Outline the signaling events that lead to resistance training–induced increases in muscle growth.Describe the role that hormones and satellite cells play in resistance training–induced hypertrophy.Discuss how detraining following strength training affects muscle fiber size and strength and explain how retraining affects muscle fiber size and strength.Describe the cellular events that lead to inactivity-induced muscle atrophy.Define muscle memory and discuss a potential mechanism that may contribute to muscle memory.Explain why concurrent strength and endurance training can impair strength gains.
