A trainer explains why two to three days a week is the sweet spot for training your arms and building more muscle.

The study shows that contracting muscles release biochemical signals, or myokines, which significantly enhance neuron growth.

Exercise can have benefits at the level of neurons, through chemical and mechanical effects, MIT researchers find. The discovery could inform exercise-related therapies for repairing damaged and ...

Studies show that glycogen also plays a role in muscle repair and growth. “When combined with protein, carbohydrates can ...

The team observed that when neurons are repeatedly pulled back and forth, similarly to how muscles contract and expand during exercise, the neurons grow just as much as when they are exposed to a ...

Jim Folk, the president of The Anxiety Centre, suggests that by reducing stress, practicing deep breathing, increasing rest ...

Research shows us that muscle growth is driven by mechanical tension. Unlike time under tension—the amount of time a muscle ...

Researchers found that exercise promotes neuron growth through both biochemical signals (myokines) and physical stretching.

There's no doubt that exercise does a body good. Regular activity not only strengthens muscles but can bolster our bones, blood vessels, and immune system.
