Exercises For Your Specific Muscle Type
There are exercises that are going to work specifically for your muscle type. What is meant by that? Well, in this article that question will be answered along with a few more. After reading many different books on exercise and fitness I did eventually come across some gems.
Now, as both a writer and fitness enthusiast it seems only polite to give the reference to at least one of those gems. There is a book authored by Michelle Lovitt And John Speraw that is titled, 'The Smart Way To Exercise For Your Muscle Type'. This book comes highly recommended.
It has lead me to the inspiration to write this very article. Basically, one (Of The MANY) tid-bits of information on learning how to exercise for your muscle type is what the book terms as "Fast-Twitch and Slow-Twitch fibers.
Our muscles are a make-up of both types of fibers. However, every body is unique in these muscle fibers. Fast-Twitch Fibers are more directly related to the more extreme powerful actions such as weightlifting, long and high jumping, and quickly pushing to a limit.
Slow-Twitch muscle fibers are responsible for the long term type of exercises that have more to do with endurance. Things like running, walking, swimming, and generally things that test your endurance capabilities.
These little bits of information may not seem interesting to many but technically speaking, from a fitness point-of-view this is revolutionary stuff. It can help you to laser target your workouts to achieve exact results. For example losing weight or gaining weight, putting on muscle and bulk or achieving a more lean chiseled look.
Finding out your personal muscle fiber types can help you to dramatically increase the results and effectiveness of your workouts. Also allowing you to tailor your workout routines to your own personal body type.
Now, regardless of which Twitch-type of muscle you have you are still going to need both aerobic and anaerobic exercises.
