ClinConnect Summary

The Resistance Training, Detraining, and Retraining Study 2024 (TraDeRe2024) is a research project that aims to understand how different people respond to resistance training, which is exercise aimed at building muscle strength. The study will look at why some individuals see more muscle growth than others after following a resistance training program. Researchers want to know if the way someone's muscles grow after one training session can predict how they will respond to another training session later on. They will also explore whether individuals who typically see less muscle growth can benefit from doing more training.

The study is currently looking for healthy adults aged 18 to 50 who have previously participated in an earlier phase of the trial. Participants will take part in a 12-week supervised resistance training program and will undergo various assessments, such as muscle tests and collecting samples of urine, saliva, and blood to measure muscle growth and breakdown. Throughout the study, participants will also fill out questionnaires about their lifestyle and undergo multiple tests to check their muscle size and strength. This study is important for helping us understand how to improve exercise effectiveness for everyone, especially those who may not respond as well to traditional training methods.
