Resistance training induces muscle hypertrophy primarily through increased muscle protein synthesis (MPS) mediated by mTORC1, resulting in a net gain of muscle protein when synthesis exceeds breakdown.

Muscle growth occurs when your body builds more protein than it breaks down. Resistance training triggers this process, and adequate protein intake ensures the raw materials are available to maximize this natural building process.
