Within [Resting (black bars), Post (gray bars), and Recovery (white bars)]- and between [weight maintenance (WM) and energy deficit (ED)]-study phase responses to exercise and a high-protein mixed meal for phosphorylated (p) mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR)Ser2448 (A), p-p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K)Ser424/Thr421 (B), and p-ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6)Ser240/244 (C) in subjects receiving 200 mg testosterone enanthate/wk (TEST) or placebo (PLA). For A–C, a representative band for the target phosphorylation site is on top and a representative band for total protein is on bottom. Protein phosphorylation status was expressed relative to totals of each protein, and changes were examined using mixed-model repeated-measure ANOVA. [n = 10 except WM Recovery (n = 9) and ED Resting (n = 9) for TEST and WM Resting (n = 9), WM Post (n = 9), and ED Post (n = 8) for PLA]. *Different from Resting, time main effect, P < 0.05.
