Summary
The study aimed to investigate the effects of resistance training volume manipulation on whole muscle hypertrophy among non-responders and responders to a low resistance training dose (single-set).
Detailed description
The magnitude of muscle hypertrophy in response to resistance training (RT) is highly variable between individuals (response heterogeneity). Manipulations in RT variables may modulate RT-related response heterogeneity; yet, this remains to be determined.

| OTHER | Lower body resistance training | The RT protocol was performed using a unilateral knee-extension machine. To reduce potential sources of bias to exercise order, subjects alternated the starting leg for each training session. |
