Data from a Progressive Resistance Randomized Trial.
prt.fiberA data frame with 2471 rows and 5 columns:
A factor with 63 levels: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, ..., 520
A numeric vector with values of isometric force ranging from 0.16 to 2.565
A numeric vector with values of specific force ranging from 80.5 to 290
A factor with 2 levels: Pre, Pos, i.e., pre- and post-intervention
A factor with 2 levels: Type 1, Type 2, i.e., Type 1 and Type 2 muscle fiber

Effects of high- and low-velocity resistance training on the contractile properties of skeletal muscle fibers from young and older humans. Journal of Applied Physiology, 111, 1021-1030.
PRT trial was aimed for devising evidence-based methods for improving and measuring the mobility and muscle power of elderly men and women.
