Muscle Fibers Explained - Muscle Contraction and Muscle Fiber Anatomy 

Great to hear!

Thanks! Was just aiming for silver.

+PictureFit hahah yea thata so funny

@@bbillyxgood shit in the hood

lol true dat

that must've been a really tough course about 15 looong minutes to cover ALL the material no way

Actually you probably are using your IIa fibers. The body does not want to naturally want to use IIx fibers. It generally doesn't want to be used unless you were under some high physical stress.

@@Perseus07av lifting weights is high stress.

@@lilbrocko yes you are, but it's not an all- in- one Fiber type relationship. The body will pair Type IIa and IIx together and so type IIx does not simple work in isolation.

Woohoo, thanks!

PictureFit gainz 💪

You gained another sub by me

Me too, I have 2 copies of the fast twitch gene, but it hasn't helped me run fast, and if I were to choose one type of running that I think I'm best at I would've picked long distance. However, if I do exert maximum force my muscles do tend to fatigue quicker than most other people's. I don't know what to believe TBH.

Woahh I didn't know you can get that tested.

Ah, could that explain why I've always been so bad at running?

Sounds more like an excuse

Jackal I bet you’re the type of guy to kiss his dad on the lips 😂

effort matters. not the external weight

Both matter

YEA!

PictureFit Can u explain Thermogenics and CLA benefits? with and with exercise? Thanks..

*I have a question*, lets say you have been doing slow reps since you started or genetically speaking its possible you have more slow twitch fibers by default. You want to hit the type 2 a and x fibers with fast reps but they are less conditioned as a result of your training and/or genetics. If my understanding is correct then your ability to lift more weight is more dependent on your slow twitch muscles as they make up an unusually large amount of your power out put and thus you have a hard time lifting heavier weights fast in order to hit the other types. Like I said I'm not sure if the assumption of mine is correct but if this is why I have a hard time doing fast reps at heavy weights can I hit the type 2 muscles fibers better if I take the weight down bunch more notches and lift it faster? If not how can I get fix this? Perhaps its in my head, I just want the most I can get.

Robert Dicke lift moderately heavy with compound lifts short recoveries your tempo should not be fast but at a constant fluid motion while performing the exercise 8-12 reps 60-80% of how much you can lift is good start then try and go for 12-15 reps after a couple of weeks. Learn sprinting drills and techniques start incorporating them into your cardio routine hope this helps

Robert Dicke and one more thing, if you cannot perform compound lifts with good form you may suffer muscle imbalances and still may need a trainer to aide in instructing some corrective exercises not to mention foam rolling, stretching and knowing how and when to start and stop your deloads

+Tyler Bray Thank you for the support!

Aurelie Correia Thank you!

Hah, I'll try!

about a third each, thats why you should train heavy explosive and light controlled to maximise gainzzz

+Kelly Starnes You're very welcome =)

It's a lot of science-y stuff. Lots of cell activation. Things like proliferation and differentiation take place. Nuclei are added. etc etc. I would love to but I wouldn't know when I will have the time to break down a video like this.

PictureFit Fair enough man I appreciate it anyway! If you ever do find the time I'm sure it would be an awesome video; even if you only go over the concepts of muscle damage, mechanical tension and metabolic stress via exercise. Thanks anyway and keep the great videos coming!

+Ruby-J. Mendez Will do, and thanks!

My pleasure!

+PbVeritas A little bit of everything ;)

His videos are intricately detailed and really help, unlike other mediocre videos.

+J.H.Thomas Won More videos coming soon =) Thank you for watching! Please share any other video topics you would like to see.

Thanks!

+Noel Gonzalez Keep it up!

Thanks!

your welcome! :)

Thanks!

My pleasure!

Awesome!

+TheGL1005 Thank you and will do! If you have any other video suggestions, please feel free to share!

Thanks!

+Ang Jo Thank you! Any other topics you might be interested in seeing in a future video?

Picture Fit You're quite welcome! And sure. Maybe you can do one about "top fitness questions", or anything else about movements in the body. Or anything you want! Whatever you choose, I'll be sure to check out. I subbed! And thanks for responding!

We are looking into utilizing "top" lists in the very near future. Thanks for the input as always and thank you for subscribing! Hope to hear more great ideas from you!
