Over the past 15–20 years several laboratories have been investigating the regulation of muscle protein synthesis by diet and exercise. It is clear that resistance exercise stimulates muscle protein synthesis. The greatest stimulation comes fromresistance exercise plus a source of amino acids (for review see Tipton & Ferrando, 2008)
