Resistance Training

• 1) Myofibril Thickening
• 2) Capillary Growth
• 3) Glycogen Accomodation

Breaking down of muscle fibres (the split) and rebuilding / repair occurs. Eating correctly and rest will encourage growth.

When exercising with weights blood is flushed into the muscles and capillary growth occurs to provide fuel to the muscle.

The amount of glycogen held in the muscle cells determine the size of the muscle.
