Slowly Aerobic Respiration Slow Twitch Muscle Fibres Contract

Front Slow twitch muscle fibres
Back contract slowly
less powerful contractions
adapted for aerobic respiration to prevent build up of lactic acid
good for ensurance activities
energy released slowly via aerobic respiration
lots of mitochondria and blood vessels supplying the muscles with oxygen
Rich in myoglobin
