We are trying to figure out what correlations we should test between sports and the fast twitch muscle gene. As of now we have three categories to test: Endurance, Contact, and Explosive. Endurance sports include cross country and long distance swimming. Contact sports are football, wrestling, and water polo. Lastly, explosive sports are basketball, baseball, volleyball, and non-distance track. We will be testing people who perform 0, 1,2, or 3 of these sports for the fast twitch muscle gene. We will be able to publish our findings and show a correlation, if any, between specific sports and this gene.
