Muscle adaptations to the increase in energy demands at the start of exercise Introduction The transition from rest to exercise is associated with a huge upsurge in energy expenditure‚ due primarily to skeletal muscle contractions (Connett & Sahlin‚ 1996). Contractions require energy in the form of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP). ATP stores in muscle are around 8mmol/l and are exhausted within 2s of exercise (Connett & Sahlin‚ 1996). To continue exercise and maintain ATP homeostasis‚ ATP

to challenge all of the muscle groups in the body. This can only be done with multiple levels of resistance (tension). The fact is that each of your muscle groups is a different size and a different strength. Your thighs are stronger than your arms‚ your back is stronger than your shoulders etc… If you use one level of resistance for all of your muscles some will be challenged and some will not. Why is it so important to challenge you muscles? When you challenge a muscle (place it under new stresses)

Smooth Muscles have many functions in the body‚ but one of the functions of smooth muscles in the bladder contracts to push urine out of the body. Skeletal muscle- Skeletal Muscles are muscles attached to the skeleton. The skeletal muscles main function is to contract to support the skeleton in movement. Skeletal muscles are voluntary because we have complete control of the movements

coarsely controlled muscles. Explain how motor units act to establish muscle tone. What are the functions of muscle tone? Motor Unit- One motor neuron and all the muscles it innervates. Each muscle will respond to one motor nerve which contains axons that can have up to 100’s of neurons that branch into terminals that form NMJ with ONE fiber. When a motor neuron sends an action potential‚ it will cause all of the connected muscle fibers to contract. The number of muscle fibers per motor unit

Muscle cell I choose the muscle cell because around 12-13 years of age is the normal time for kids to have a big growth time and have their muscle and body grow quicker than normal.And being 12 what not a better time to do this. One of the coolest parts of the muscle cell is how complex it is with many different types of fibers and other layers that all work together. Another cool thing is how you can train them to make them smarter and bigger‚ what i mean by smarter is how they remember things like
