The Claim

In young adults, prior resistance training experience does not differentially influence changes in angiogenesis-related protein levels or the number of capillaries surrounding type II muscle fibers during periods of disuse and subsequent recovery training.

Source: Disuse and subsequent recovery resistance training affect skeletal muscle angiogenesis related markers regardless of prior resistance training experience.

What the research says

Supports is higher

Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.

These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.

How it works
1 study reviewed
In plain English

If you've lifted weights before, it doesn't make a difference in how your muscles rebuild blood vessels during rest and recovery after not using them, compared to someone who hasn't trained before.

Prior resistance training experience does not differentially affect changes in angiogenesis-related protein levels or type II muscle fiber capillary number during disuse and recovery training in young adults.

What the research says

1 study
  1. Study: Disuse and subsequent recovery resistance training affect skeletal muscle angiogenesis related markers regardless of prior resistance training experience.

    The study looked at how muscle blood vessel changes during rest and recovery are affected by past workout experience, and found that it doesn’t matter whether someone was previously trained or not — both groups responded the same way.
