Muscle protein synthesis depends on two primary signals: Mechanical stimulus , usually provided through resistance training Amino acid availability , primarily from adequate dietary protein Resistance training activates the pathways responsible for muscle repair and growth, while dietary protein provides the amino acids required for rebuilding muscle tissue
