The increase in protein degradation during resistance training significantly decreases after approximately six weeks, coinciding with the onset of noticeable hypertrophy.

“and then what we see is after six weeks that at the end of six weeks that increase in degradation goes way down and that's actually i mean again i can't say for certain but that coincides with when we start seeing the big improvements in hypertrophy”

“in the initial kind of phases of training you have an increase a robust increase in muscle protein synthesis but you also have a very robust increase in protein degradation”

“during the first approximately six weeks of resistance training You Don't See Much hypertrophy in people who are training you see strength improvements but you don't really see hypertrophy”
