Results of a study conducted by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine showed significant improvement in strength and range of motion, as well as evidence for

muscle, kidney cells, red blood cells, and smooth
muscle).

Therefore, it is not surprising to find that the
muscle hypertrophy resulting from strength training was associated
with the increases in whole - body insulin sensitivity we observed, because
skeletal muscle constitutes the target
tissue where most of the insulin - stimulated glucose uptake takes place [34].
Such augmentation correlated
with elevated serum testosterone levels and corresponded to significant increases in myofibrillar protein.3 Testosterone is the primary hormone that interacts
with skeletal muscle tissue, and when elevated leads to increased
muscle growth.
