The type one muscle fibers are characterized as being the slow twitch oxidative muscle fibers. They contract slowly, they have the highest tolerance to fatigue as compared to the other types of muscle fibers, and there main fuel source tends to be triglycerides. This being said the best way to train this type of muscle fiber would be with low intensity endurance type exercises, such as jogging a long distance, or walking, or performing 50 push ups vs. 8 reps on the bench press.
