Training for performance: insights from molecular biology

Int J Sports Physiol Perform. 2006 Sep;1(3):284-92. doi: 10.1123/ijspp.1.3.284.

Abstract

In this commentary the authors discuss the molecular basis of the training adaptation and review the role of several key signaling proteins important in the adaptation to endurance and resistance training.
