Researchers say muscle and liver cells can retain signs of past exercise even after someone stops training.

In studies using mice, animals that exercised, took a break and trained again grew larger muscles than mice with no training history.

The researchers say liver cells also store exercise memories and release enzymes that help supply fuel to working muscles.
