Biophysics Researchers Create Mathematical Model That Predicts Best Way To Build Muscle

Researchers have developed a mathematical model that can predict the optimum exercise regime for building muscle.
The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, used methods of theoretical biophysics to construct the model, which can tell how much a specific amount of exertion will cause a muscle to grow and how long it will take. The model could form the basis of a software product, where users could optimize their exercise regimes by entering a few details of their individual physiology.

The model is based on earlier work by the same team, which found that a component of muscle called titin …
