Cytokine and hormone responses to resistance training

This study examined the effects of heavy resistance training on physiological acute exercise-
induced fatigue (5× 10 RM leg press) changes after two loading protocols with the same
relative intensity (%)(5× 10 RM Rel) and the same absolute load (kg)(5× 10 RM Abs) as in
pretraining in men (n= 12). Exercise-induced neuromuscular (maximal strength and muscle
power output), acute cytokine and hormonal adaptations (ie, total and free testosterone,
cortisol, growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), IGF binding protein-3 …
