Acute Effect of Citrulline Malate on Repetition Performance During Strength Training: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Fredrik Tonstad Vårvik, Thomas Bjørnsen, and Adam M. Gonzalez

hypertrophy have not been extensively investigated, and more research is warranted. Notably, CitMal may play a role in stimulating muscle protein synthesis ( Goron et al., 2019 ), and NO may stimulate satellite cell differentiation ( Anderson, 2000 ). Side Effects Associated With CitMal Supplementation Five

Got Beer? A Systematic Review of Beer and Exercise

Jaison L. Wynne and Patrick B. Wilson

effects on neuromotor function, high doses of alcohol impair muscle protein synthesis (MPS; Parr et al., 2014 ) and stimulate diuresis ( Jones, 1990 ), which could lead to suboptimal training adaptions and rehydration, respectively. Then again, ingesting beer can acutely increase plasma antioxidant

Strengthening the Practice of Exercise and Sport-Science Research

Israel Halperin, Andrew D. Vigotsky, Carl Foster, and David B. Pyne

hormonal levels 21 , 22 and muscle protein synthesis 23 , 24 have also been employed. Solution Longitudinal studies investigating the validity of commonly used surrogate outcomes in exercise and sport science are warranted. While difficult to conduct, such studies should have a substantial impact on the

A Review of Prevention, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport in Artistic (Synchronized) Swimming

Sherry Robertson and Margo Mountjoy

). It is recommended that artistic swimmers consume sufficient calories matching differential EEs, with a focus on carbohydrate and protein ( Cialdella-Kam et al., 2014 ). Preexercise and postexercise consumption of carbohydrate and protein influence muscle protein synthesis, muscle soreness, and

substance appears to directly affect muscle protein synthesis via modulations of components in the mammalian target of the rapamycin pathway ( Farshidfar et al., 2017 ). Cr supplementation may directly affect the myogenic process by altering secretions of myokines (e.g., myostatin and insulin-like growth

that increases the presence of anabolic growth factors and the recruitment of fast-twitch fibers. BFR training may also affect the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, favoring muscle protein synthesis. 24 – 26 Additionally, the increase in blood, plasma, and muscle cell lactate has been

Improvement in Skeletal Muscle Strength and Plasma Levels of Follistatin and Myostatin Induced by an 8-Week Resistance Training and Epicatechin Supplementation in Sarcopenic Older Adults

Farnoosh Mafi, Soheil Biglari, Alireza Ghardashi Afousi, and Abbas Ali Gaeini

; Woo, 2017 ). Various mechanisms may cause sarcopenia; however, the details of these mechanisms have remained unknown so far ( Narici & Maffulli, 2010 ). One of the mechanisms leading to sarcopenia is the reduction of muscle protein synthesis in response to anabolic stimuli ( Narici & Maffulli, 2010

Routine Yoga Practice Impacts Whole Body Protein Utilization in Healthy Women

Megan Colletto and Nancy Rodriguez

) is the only study focused on protein utilization within a similar age range as the current investigation. More specifically, these researchers targeted skeletal muscle protein synthesis to characterize muscle health during bed rest. The aim of our investigation was embedded in a context similar to

least among adults, as strenuous exercise increases bone mineral density ( 22 ) and muscle protein synthesis ( 38 ) to a greater extent in older men relative to older women. This sexual dysmorphism is largely connected to the age-associated decline in estrogen levels in women, which attenuate
