How Muscles Adapt: Understanding Slow and Fast Twitch Fibers

The video explores how muscles adapt to exercise, focusing on skeletal muscles. It explains the structure and function of muscles, highlighting the differences between slow and fast twitch fibers. Slow twitch fibers are suited for endurance due to their aerobic capacity, while fast twitch fibers excel in strength and speed with anaerobic processes. The video also discusses how different exercises engage these fibers and the physiological adaptations that occur, such as hypertrophy and increased endurance.
