dc.description.abstractFacts (not alternate): Most people who aim to lose fat as their fitness goal also want to increase their muscle mass. People want to "have a butt" or "get big" but their workout routine doesn't always match that goal. Muscle growth is complex beast that is still not fully understood but we have identified a few key principles. There are three main ways to induce muscle growth from strength training: mechanical tearing from a large load on the fibers, ischemia or lack of oxygen to the tissue under anaerobic conditions, and metabolite accumulation or the formation of products like lactic acid. Basically any style of exercise can encompass these features, but how do you maximize your goals?en
