Flexibility — The ability to quickly and repeatedly bend‚ stretch‚ twist‚ or reach out with your body‚ arms‚ and/or legs. Dynamic Strength — The ability to exert muscle force repeatedly or continuously over time. This involves muscular endurance and resistance to muscle fatigue. Explosive Strength — The ability to use short bursts of muscle force to propel oneself (as in jumping or sprinting)‚ or to throw an object. Extent Flexibility — The ability to bend‚ stretch‚ twist‚ or reach with your body

Then go into detail about two organs‚ with their functions‚ what tissues they are made of and where they are found in the body. Tissues: Tissues are groups of similar cells that have specific functions. In this piece of work I’ll talk about these types of cells: Epithelial Tissues: Epithelial are the lining of internal and external surfaces and body cavities‚ including tubes/channels (ducts) carrying secretions from glands

accumulate in aerobic conditions as they body has the ability under these conditions to clear the lactate at the same time as it produces it. During anaerobic glycolysis‚ production rate is greater than clearance and lactic acid accumulates in the muscle tissue and can spill over into the bloodstream. This causes blood pH to increase and thus the blood acidity levels rise. Lactate is only harmful to exercise performance with the dissociation of the hydrogen ions from lactate causing the changes in

What Is Resistance/Weight Training? Resistance/ weight training is any type of exercise that causes the skeletal muscles to contract and detract with the resistance of an outside force. This outside resistance can be produced in many ways‚ a few examples are: dumbbells‚ rubber exercise tubing‚ your own body weight‚ bricks‚ bottles of water‚ or any other object that causes the muscles to contract. A common name for this exercise is weight lifting. There are many different exercises that fall within

system is to make the body move‚ a signal travels along neurons nerve cells from the brain to the spinal cord. There‚ "lower motor neurons" pass the message on to the muscles. The end of every lower motor neuron releases a chemical‚ which is received by receptors in the muscle tissue. Once enough of the chemical has been received‚ the muscle is able to move. Sometimes this process malfunctions and a person develops a neuromuscular disorder. Symptoms include muscular weakness‚ spasms‚

impulses from passing to the skeletal muscles. The purpose of blocking these passes is to make the muscles weak or paralyzed in surgery. Neuromuscular blockers can be used in many surgical procedures‚ like inserting an endotracheal tube‚ by relaxing the jaw muscles. They are also useful for relaxing the diaphragm and intercostal muscles (responsible for respirations) so that the patient can be manually ventilated. Neuromuscular blockers also aid in relaxing any muscles around the surgical site so that

Pulled Muscles You can pull muscles in almost any part of the body‚ though the calves and the thigh muscles are the most typical for runners. This may occur when you try to turn or cut‚ or when you might be in a game of football‚ but it may also happen while you are running in a straight line. The muscles must be able to twitch and react in the
