#65 - Muscle Stem Cells, Hypertrophy, and Concurrent Training w/ Dr. Kevin Murach
In this episode, I talk to Dr. Kevin Murach. He received a Ph.D. in Human Bioenergetics from Ball State University in 2015 and post-doctoral training in muscle stem cell biology at the University of Kentucky Center for Muscle Biology. His research broadly pertains to adult skeletal muscle mass regulation in the context of exercise, aging, and beyond.
Dr. Murach uses human muscle samples, conditional and inducible genetic mouse models, cell culture approaches, and advanced single-cell/nucleus techniques to address his research questions. He was the recipient of a Ruth L. Kirchstein F32 postdoctoral training award and a K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award from the National Institutes of Health, is an Editorial Board Fellow at the Journal of Physiology, and his work has been featured in The Scientist, Discover, Men’s Health, and Runner’s World magazines.
We talk about the role of hypertrophy, aerobic and endurance style training, the role of satellite cells, and many more.
Show Notes:
- (11:05): Interesting things in science

- (25:26): Role of concurrent training
- (43:09): Aerobic and endurance style training
- (48:28): Role of satellite cells
- (55:06): Fiber splitting vs. satellite cells
- (1:04:38): Best advice Kevin received
- (1:15:00): How to support Kevin’s journey
