And as with all muscles, the quads» muscle
fiber type composition can change over time, depending on if and how they are trained.
The uncommonly wide natural variation of
fiber type composition seen with the quadriceps may be why some people only seem to be able to build up their thighs with high rep / lighter weight squats (e.g. 20 rep squat sets), while others seem to have no problem packing on size with a few sets of heavy weight / low rep squats (e.g. 1 - 3 rep sets).
However, this muscle
fiber type composition ratio can vary widely in either direction; some people naturally have quadriceps consisting almost entirely of slow - twitch muscle fibers, while others have mostly fast - twitch fibers.
