• Endurance training results in changes to the skeletal microstructure, which can be quantified using MRI-based diffusion tensor imaging. • The combined application of MRI diffusion tensor imaging and T2 mapping allows the differentiation of microstructural changes caused by active exercise or endurance training. • Environmental adaptations of the skeletal muscle caused by physical training are influenced by gender.
