Strength training: importance of genetic factors
Abstract
PURPOSE: This study focuses on the quantification of genetic and environmental factors in arm strength after high-resistance strength training.
METHODS: Male monozygotic (MZ, N = 25) and dizygotic (DZ, N = 16) twins (22.4 +/- 3.7 yr) participated in a 10-wk resistance training program for the elbow flexors. The evidence for genotype*training interaction, or association of interindividual differences in training effects with the genotype, was …
