Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Intense resistance training can lead to the conversion of fast glycolytic fibers (FG) into fast oxidative fibers (FOG). This process is known as fiber type transformation and occurs due to the increased demand for energy production by the muscle cells during exercise. FG fibers use anaerobic metabolism to produce energy, while FOG fibers use aerobic metabolism. As a result, the conversion of FG fibers to FOG fibers increases the capacity of the muscle to perform endurance activities. Conversely, it is unlikely that slow oxidative fibers (SO) can convert to fast glycolytic fibers (FG) as these two fiber types have different physiological characteristics and energy production pathways.
