Anabolic Signaling Phosphorylation Does Not Explain Differential Muscle Protein Synthesis with Intra-Set Rest Manipulation

Power development is imperative for dynamic sport athletes. Cluster sets (CLU) are an effective method to allay the progressive decrement in power output normally observed in a traditional (TRD) resistance exercise strategy. CLU configurations incorporate a brief intra-set rest period to preserve velocity and power. Despite favorable performance, we previously established that TRD configurations elicit higher myofibrillar protein synthesis (MPS)...
