Which of the following best describes muscle hypertrophy?
Which of the following best describes muscle hypertrophy?
- A decrease in muscle size due to a decrease in the size of existing muscle fibers
- An increase in muscle size due to an increase in the size of existing muscle fibers (correct)

What is the formula for calculating force?
What is the formula for calculating force?
- Force = mass x acceleration (correct)
- Force = acceleration - mass
- Force = mass / acceleration
- Force = acceleration / mass
