Human back muscles have been classified as local stabilizers, global stabilizers and global mobilizers. This concept is supported by the distribution of slow and fast muscle fibres in quadrupedal mammals, but has not been evaluated for humans because detailed information on the fibre type composition of their perivertebral musculature is rare. Moreover, such information is derived from spot samples,...
Many physiological parameters scale with body size. Regarding limb muscles, it has been shown that the demands for relatively faster muscles, less postural work, and greater heat production in small mammals are met by lower proportions of Type I and conversely higher proportions of Type II fibers. To investigate possible adaptations of the perivertebral musculature, we investigated the proportion,...
