There are many different muscles groups that are used during exercise. Some of the main muscle groups are hamstrings‚ quads‚ glutes‚ and pectoral muscles. There are different muscle within each muscle group. In the hamstring muscles‚ there are three main muscles: semitendinosus‚ semimembranosus‚ and biceps femoris. In the quad muscles there are four main muscles: rectus femoris‚ vastus lateralis‚ vastus intermedius‚ and vastus medialis. There are three main muscles in the glutes: gluteus maximus

States of Muscle Dystrophy and relation to Dystrophin Muscle dystrophy branches into many different kinds of muscle disease including myositis‚ multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia. What makes it so important is that muscle dystrophy can be found in patients as young as infants and as old as adults. Also‚ some types of muscle dystrophy can be progressively disabling. Muscle diseases are present in infants and children because many of the diseases are hereditary. For example‚ Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Any athlete has surely experienced a muscle cramp before and can tell you the indescribable pain they emit. The main question is what is a muscle cramp and how is it caused. Someone who frequently undergoes muscle cramps may also wonder ‘how do I prevent these?’ Muscle cramps can be a nuisance and may stope athletes or everyday people from doing what they like. When a muscle or group of muscles involuntarily contracts this is called a muscle cramp. A muscle contracting causes it to get smaller

Introduction: Skeletal muscle cells are specialized cells that contain multinucleated muscle fibers called myocytes. These myocytes contain thicker fibers that facilitate the release of calcium‚ the generation of an action potential within the sarcolemma‚ and the subsequent production of a muscle contraction. Muscle contractions are a direct byproduct of motor unit recruitment‚ and for this lab we can examine these effects with aid of a finger pulse transducer and a bar stimulus electrode. The

HOW MUSCLES GET THE ENERGY THEY NEED TO WORK 1) Muscle needs energy to contract and as stated previously the ‘universal energy currency’ of living systems is ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This is largely produced within mitochondria‚ organelles which are often referred to as the ‘powerhouse’ of the cell. The ATP that results is used to provide the power for the muscle fibres to contract. Contraction itself (i.e. actual shortening movement) occurs when a bond is broken between ATP and one of its
