First of all we have to defreniate between the musle stenght and muscles power. Musle stenght: Muscular strength defined as the ability of a muscle /group of muscles to contract with maximal force. Muscular strength describes how strong a muscle is or how much force it can exert. Exercise professionals often measure muscular strength by determining the maximum weight a person can lift at one time. There are 2 components to gain muscles strength; 1) The neural component (short-term). 2) The hypertrophic
Premium Muscle Muscle contraction
The two main processes involved in muscle contraction are cross-bridge cycling and the length-tension relationship‚ which normally function to maximize contraction in the muscle. Beginning with the activation of a motor unit‚ the ions flow from the motor unit towards the muscle fibers that it innervates by the motor neuron in the same way as a normal muscle would. However since the tissue is damaged‚ the force that is generated by these muscle fibers will not be as great‚ leaving the fibers less

During the second industrial revolution the American economy had an explosion of growth‚ many historians attribute this growth to the construction of the railroads. This attribution is due to the many benefits that arose during the construction and development of railroads. The railroads allowed widespread migration from east to west that allowed for greater exploitation of western pastures. Railroads also allowed for industrial innovations through the use of technical knowhow developed during construction

MANY PROCESSES MUST TAKE place within the skeletal muscle fibres in order for muscle contraction to occur. The cross bridge cycle‚ process by which the muscle length is shortened as myosin heads‚ extending from the myosin filaments‚ interact cyclically in a rowing motion with the actin filament (Rayment et al. 1993)‚ is one of the crucial mechanical events required. The mechanism is initiated when an ATP molecule is bound to a myosin head. An enzyme within the head. known as ATPase‚ hydrolyzes the

types of muscle skeletal which are voluntary‚ smooth muscle which are involuntary and cardiac muscle. Muscle is made up of protein filaments‚ myosin and actin. These filaments slide past each other to produce a contraction which changes both the length and shape of the cell. The primary function of the muscle is to produce both movement and force. Skeletal muscle is composed of bundles of muscle fibres containing myofibrils of thick and thin filaments (myosin and actin). Skeletal muscle have distinct
