Guest guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hello Group Members, I have 2 sons one 17 and one 12. My 17 year old is straight fast twitch, really fast and excels in athletics. He is 6 ft. 170 pounds or so. My 12 year old is slow twitch and tall for his age. He did not walk until he had tubes put into his ears as a child and does not have the best balance. However, he has good athletic skill, but his slowness and lack of balance are holding him back athletically. I have read a few things saying that it is possible to work with someone to help them recruit fast twitch muscle fiber and improve their balance. Do any of you have an idea of some type of workout or exercises maybe that would help him develop his speed and balance. His balance has improved over the years but he still would improve greatly with better balance. I'm sure he also needs to strengthen his legs for sure but I thought maybe someone had dealt with similar problems on this group. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rex Icard Albany, Georgia USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
