| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Slow-Twitch muscle | The slow muscles are more efficient at using oxygen to generate more fuel (known as ATP) for continuous, extended muscle contractions over a long time |
| Fast-twitch oxidative | Fast-Twitch Oxidative muscles are the Middle of the range muscle firbe |
| fast-twitch glycolytic | Fast-twitch glycolytic muscles are muscle that can reach their peak density quicker. |
| Mitochondrial density | Mitochondrial density is the amount of mitochondria within a cell. |
| Oxidative enzymes | An oxidative enzyme is an enzyme which catalyses oxidation reaction. |
| Myoglobin content | Myoglobin is an iron- and oxygen-binding protein found in the muscle tissue . |
| Capillary density | Your cappillaries on a basic level are small blood vessels that supply your muscles with blood. |
| phosphocreatine stores | Phosphocreatine, also known as creatine phosphate, is in an organic molecule that enables the expression in the muscles of explosive power lasting no longer than about 8 seconds. This is stored in phosphocreatine stores. |
| triglyceride stores | The optimum state of fatty acids in order to enable storage |
| Fatigue resistance | The number of cycles of stress a human can withstand before failure before a spesific nature occurs.(usually 10 million) |
