fast-twitch (FT) fiber,

a muscle fiber that can develop high tension rapidly. It is usually innervated by a single alpha neuron and has low fatigue resistance, low capillary density, low levels of aerobic enzymes, and low oxygen availability. FT fibers are used in such activities as sprinting, jumping, and weight-lifting. Also called fast-twitch muscle fiber. See also slow-twitch fiber.

FT slow-twitch fiber	You need to adopt a progressive training technique, which can stimulate the growth of both the fast-twitch fibers, as well as the slow-twitch fibers in your muscles, and which can maintain all the muscles of your body in a continuous state of shock, so that a plateau stage is not arrived at easily.
