Fibers were divided into (a) Type I slow-twitch oxidative, (b) Type IIA fast-twitch oxidative, and (c) Type IIB fast-twitch glycolytic.
A weak significant relationship between Type II fiber area and blood lactate levels (r =.53) was revealed.
It was shown that even though the "fast" boys inherited 66.5% more Type II fibers, a greater percentage of them switched to oxidative functioning so that between the groups the fast group had 77.3% and the slow group 83.2% of fibers functioning oxidatively.
