ESSAYS ON APS CLASSIC PAPERS

Nature vs. nurture: can exercise really alter fiber type composition in human skeletal muscle?

Department of Kinesiology and Health, Georgia State University, Atlanta, Georiga 30303

ABSTRACT

This essay looks at the historical significance of two APS classic papers that are freely available online:

Gollnick PD, Armstrong RB, Saubert CW IV, Piehl K, and Saltin B. Enzyme activity and fiber composition in skeletal muscle of untrained and trained men. J Appl Physiol 33: 312—319, 1972 (http://jap.physiology.org/cgi/reprint/33/3/312).

Gollnick PD, Armstrong RB, Saltin B, Saubert CW IV, Sembrowich WL, and Shepherd RE. Effect of training on enzyme activity and fiber composition of human skeletal muscle. J Appl Physiol 34: 107—111, 1973 (http://jap.physiology.org/cgi/reprint/34/1/107).
