Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The myofibers would be recruited in the following order:
1) Fatigue-resistant slow-twitch fibers: These fibers are recruited first as they have a low threshold for activation and contribute to low-intensity activities or initial stages of exercise.
2) Fatigue-resistant oxidative fast-twitch fibers: As the intensity of the exercise increases, these fibers are recruited, which are more powerful than slow-twitch fibers but fatigue-resistant.
3) Glycolytic fast-twitch fibers: These fibers are recruited last as they have a high threshold for activation and are only activated during high-intensity activities or when the body is under extreme physiological stress.
