Dynamic Muscle Loading Alters Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) and Muscle Size
(A) Absolute change in integrated myofibrillar protein synthesis rates (n = 12).
(B) Percentage change in leg lean mass (LLM) after 10 weeks of unilateral RT and 2 weeks of UL, respectively (n = 12). ∗Statistically different from Pre (baseline value); #statistically different from RT value (p < 0.05).
In both panels, the boxes include the 25th, 50th, and 75th quartiles and whiskers represent the maximum and minimum values. The mean value is depicted by +.
