They are red in colour due to the presence of large volumes of myoglobin and so oxygen and high numbers of Mitochondria.or this reason the muscles containing mainly type I fibers are often postural muscles such as those in the neck and spine due to their endurance capabilities Also, athletes such as marathon runners have a high number of this type of fiber, partly through genetics, partly through training. Type IIa.
