Myonuclear accretion and satellite cell (SC) content did not significantly differ between the MIS and COL groups after 10 weeks of RET.
Both types of supplementation may not significantly affect myonuclear and satellite cell content during resistance training.

More from this paper
- Multi-ingredient supplementation (MIS) resulted in a greater increase in type II fiber cross-sectional area (fCSA) following 10 weeks of resistance exercise training (RET) compared to collagen supplementation (COL) (effect size = 0.89).Strong
- Satellite cell activation was similar between groups in the untrained state but showed a trend toward greater increases with MIS after RET.Strong
