Impact of Resistance Training on Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Biogenesis, Content, and Function

Skeletal muscle metabolic and contractile properties are reliant on muscle mitochondrial and myofibrillar protein turnover. The turnover of these specific protein pools is compromised during disease, aging, and inactivity. Oppositely, exercise can accentuate muscle protein turnover, thereby countera...
