Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Resistance training is a cornerstone of physical preparation, with the interaction between nutrition, supplementation strategies, and resistance exercise being pivotal in optimizing muscular adaptations. As such, nutritional supplementation strategies have become the subject of continual scientific inquiry. This Special Issue aims to explore cutting-edge research related to nutritional supplementation strategies aimed at promoting resistance training adaptations. We invite authors to contribute original research, reviews, and unique perspectives addressing current works related to enhancing resistance training outcomes for health and athletic performance via nutritional supplementation strategies.
Key Themes:
Authors are encouraged to explore, but are not limited to, the following themes:
- Nutritional interventions targeting muscle hypertrophy and strength gains.
- The impact of various ergogenic aids on resistance training performance.
- The role of carbohydrates, proteins, and amino acids in supporting resistance training adaptations.
- Creatine supplementation and its effects on power, endurance, and recovery.
- Resistance exercise, nutrition supplementation strategies, and molecular responses.
- Resistance exercise, nutritional supplementation strategies, and female athletes.
- Role of various nutritional supplementation strategies in optimizing performance, recovery, and adaptation to resistance training.
