RECOVERY AFTER HEAVY RESISTANCE EXERCISE AND SKELETAL MUSCLE ANDROGEN RECEPTOR AND INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR-I ISOFORM EXPRESSION IN STRENGTH TRAINED MEN.

The article presents the results of a study which investigated the physiological aspects of muscle adaptation and recovery from intense strength training exercises. It focused on insulin-like growth factor-I expression and skeletal muscle androgen receptor protein concentration. An overview of related previous research is provided, along with details of the experimental protocol, which involved muscle biopsies.
