Hatfield test and the test of Poliquin(muscle fibers) Test of the muscle fibers of Hatfield Test of muscle fibers by Charles Poliquin The tests discussed in this article are intended to evaluate the composition in muscle fibers (slow and fast) of an athlete, subjecting it to specific exercises. Since both require the execution of efforts ceilings are contraindicated for beginners and sedentary. To be performed also require the aid of an assistant and of appropriate tools for the muscle, possibly equipped with safety devices. Test of the muscle fibers of Hatfield 1) After sufficient heating, determine their maximal exercise choice; The procedure is explained in this article: calculation of the maximum 2) Do you rest for 15 minutes 3) They try to complete as many repetitions as possible in the same year, but with a load equal to 80% of the ceiling just calculated 4) interpret the results: 8 reps: prevalence of resistant fibers or red (type I) 5) draw conclusions: subjects with a predominance of fast fibers will get the most training stimulus using high loads; will also be prepared to succeed in the activities of sprint and power. Gi athletes richest red fibers will instead be suited to endurance sports and training with moderate loads and high number of repetitions.
