    (NCBI)‚ depending on the task males or females were more or less resistant for the muscle group being used. Valley Center High School physiology students conducted experiments on muscle size and strength and muscle fatigue. With this in mind‚ the data the students collected from these labs and other sources shows how muscle size and sex have an impact on an individual’s muscle fatigue resistance. First‚ the muscle size of an individual determines how long they can withstand certain types of physical

    ------------------------------------------------- LIST OF MUSCLE INJURIES Properly functioning muscles perform only one duty‚ contraction. Muscles enable the body to sit‚ to move and to stand upright. They are attached by way of tendons to bones. Their contraction is controlled by electrical signals that can either be voluntary‚ such as when a person decides to stand up‚ or involuntary‚ as with the muscles that expand and contract the chest to control breathing. Muscles are made of thousands of muscle fibers. Knowing the types

    Strength training typically produces a combination of the two different types of hypertrophy: contraction against 80 to 90% of the one repetition maximum for 2–6 repetitions (reps) causes myofibrillated hypertrophy to dominate (as in powerlifters‚ olympic lifters and strength athletes)‚ while several repetitions (generally 8 – 12 for bodybuilding or 12 or more for muscular endurance) against a sub-maximal load facilitates mainly sarcoplasmic hypertrophy (professional bodybuilders and endurance athletes)

    The muscular system has three types of muscle: skeletal‚ smooth‚ and cardiac. However‚ the main focus will be on the skeletal muscles and how they contract‚ as well as fatigue and respond to changes in temperature. In terms of the anatomy of the skeletal muscle‚ it is connected to bones by tendons‚ enabling movement. The muscle has layers around its main body: the fascia and the epimysium. A muscle is made up of many fascicles‚ bundles of myofibers (muscle cell) surrounded by perimysium. Each myofibers

    isolated frog muscle could be made to contract when the sciatic nerve was irritated with a metal object‚ conducted the first muscle experiments between 1661 and 1665. Later‚ between 1737-1798 Luigi Galvani determined that frog muscle responded to electrical currents. The kymograph‚ which was invented in the late 1840’s lead to the revolution of experimental physiology because it enabled muscle contractions to be analyzed and recorded. The muscle cell or fiber is the basic unit of a muscle. The frog gastrocnemius

    CHAPTER 4 AIRCRAFT BASIC CONSTRUCTION INTRODUCTION Naval aircraft are built to meet certain specified requirements. These requirements must be selected so they can be built into one aircraft. It is not possible for one aircraft to possess all characteristics; just as it isn’t possible for an aircraft to have the comfort of a passenger transport and the maneuverability of a fighter. The type and class of the aircraft determine how strong it must be built. A Navy fighter must be fast‚ maneuverable

    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
