Abstract in brief

The study shows that individuals who initially do not respond to exercise training (nonresponders) can improve their cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) when given increased exercise dose, such as additional training sessions.
Increasing exercise volume from 60 to 300 minutes per week over 6 weeks significantly reduces the prevalence of nonresponse, with all individuals showing improvements after higher dose training.
The main factor driving CRF improvement is changes in hemoglobin mass, and the potential for fitness gains exists broadly in healthy individuals; nonresponse appears to be dose-dependent rather than an inherent trait.]

Are there those who do not respond to workouts? Researchers found that the level of "non-responders" depended on how much they trained per week: • 60 minutes - 69% • 120 minutes - 40% • 180 minutes - 29% • 240 minutes - 0% https://t.co/MjRQwjsJtL #training #running

@mackinprof @PrimaryCarePAC @BradSchoenfeld @Alan_Couzens @TheAlanAragon @nick_krontiris @piotrek08951339 @jerryteixeira @DrMJoyner So I do agree. But it’s been difficult to reconcile research like this. I thought if you were struggling to make hypertrophic gains, provided diet and intensity are sufficient, the approach was typically to increase volume. https://t.co/6b6efH5boi https://t.co/rwePyVZ663

@michaelkeenan_0 @brogurt_rising @BowTiedMaker @ESYudkowsky Take eg this study: https://t.co/0MKNOumczR Prima facie non responders were asked to increase their training volume → they too started to respond, they just required a different regime. https://t.co/s6wCR3nVo2
