More interestingly, Farup et al. (2014) found that the strength of the relationship between rate of force development and type IIX muscle fiber relative area reduced steadily as the time period moved further away from the onset of the contraction (r = 0.61, 0.56, 0.46, 0.26 for 30ms, 50ms, 100ms and 200ms).
