:::::Simultaneous electromyographic recordings from an area of the semitendinosus muscle of the sheep (Fig. 6.5) with a dense myosin ATPase low (AL) fibre population, and an area with a sparse AL fibre population density. In (a), the sheep is supporting weight on the limb, in (b) it is walking quietly and in (c) it is kicking violently.
