Abstract or Summary
We sought to determine how one bout of resistance training to failure with either higher repetitions (30FAIL) or lower repetitions (80FAIL)
affected the promoter methylation statuses of genes that drive skeletal muscle hypertrophy. We hypothesized that a bout of 80FAIL
training would lead to a more robust hypomethylation of genes that regulate skeletal muscle hypertrophy compared to 30FAIL training.
This study continues to display how different modalities of resistance training affect the skeletal muscle molecular milieu and furthers our
scientific understanding of factors that contribute to training adaptations.
