Satellite cell proliferation challenged?

This board is strangely quiet...

But anyway, I found this

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19196907?itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez....

And this

I thought the point of the ABC program and removing eccentric stress on A days was that extended periods of rest were when satellite cells proliferated... but these studies seem to indicate that there are more SC _after_ exercise...

Ok and rather than start a new thread, I was digging around... found this

Stretch shortening exercises obviously mean plyometrics, right?

"Single-fiber cross-sectional area increased 23% in type I (P<0.01), 22% in type IIa (P<0.001), and 30% in type IIa/IIx fibers (P<0.001)."

Thats some crazy hypertrophy coming off plyometrics! Am I reading this wrong?
