Impact of Muscle Temperature on Muscle Growth and Breakdown: Cooling During Resistance Training
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Muscle Cooling and Resistance Exercise for Exercise Training. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of human skeletal muscle temperature during resistance exercise on myogenic and proteolytic signaling. Subjects will perform bilateral resistance exercise bouts at an intensity that should stimulate a muscle growth response in the Vastus Lateralis. During the resistance exercise, the subjects will receive a cold (10°C) intervention on the experimental limb, while receiving a neutral temperature intervention (22°C) on the control limb.
