Exercise physiology 201 anyone?? >:D

We just got 101 and VERY good it was! ;D

Making fun a bit, but actually good to touch base with stuff I read LONG,LONG ago and only somewhat remember.

I have to admit that this was all new to me, nothing I ever ran into growing up.? I had no idea that there were fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscle fibers, or which was used for what and how to foster the growth of one versus the other.  I just thought all muscles were pretty much the same.  :o :o
Of course, none of my basketball coaches ever said much about real stretching either, and looking back feel that was real unfortunate.
Wind sprints, running bleachers, directonal shuffles with some situps and pull-ups, but no stretching of the resultant muscles.? Oh well, hopefully coaches have gotten smarter.
