Resistance exercise load reduction and exercise-induced micro-damage

High volumes of resistance exercise increase muscle hypertrophy, independent of the extent of muscle damage. We compared volume load and markers of muscle damage after resistance exercise using two load reduction strategies versus a constant intensity.  Methods: Twenty-seven trained men (age = 23.4±...
