Resistance exercise (RE) training and pharmacological stimulation of β 2 -Adrenoceptors (β 2 -ARs) alone can promote muscle hypertrophy and prevent muscle atrophy. Although the activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is a well-established response during RE, the physiological contribution...
