Description: Glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) polymorphisms associate with obesity, muscle strength,
and cortisol sensitivity. We examined associations among four NR3C1 polymorphisms
and the muscle response to resistance training (RT). European-American adults (n = 602,
23.8±0.4yr) completed a 12 week unilateral arm RT program. Maximum voluntary contraction
(MVC) assessed isometric strength (kg) and MRI… more
