Experimental design. CON (control, n = 8), EX (exercise, 60% VO 2 max, n = 8), EXIN (Exercise + androgen receptor (AR) inhibitor, 60% VO 2 max, n = 8). EX and EXIN groups underwent training by running on a treadmill five times a week for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks of training, energy metabolism was measured during 1 h exercise using the most recent training conditions (18 m/min, 8° slope, 60% of maximum oxygen uptake). After measurement the mice were euthanized and dissected, and skeletal muscle tissue samples were collected for protein expression analysis using western blotting
