Figure 2. Correlation between muscle carnosine content and percentage area occupied by type-II fibers in 12 untrained subjects.

Figure 2

The X-axis displays the percentage of the total area occupied by type-II fibers. The muscle carnosine content in millimolar (mM) is shown on the Y-axis. A significant (p = 0.009 and r = 0.714) positive correlation between muscle carnosine content and percentage area occupied by type-II fibers is demonstrated.
