    "seeing-doing" because your muscles seem to "know" and "remember" just what to do. What you’re learning now is speed‚ i.e. how to perform the task carefully and quickly. That’s muscle memory. Scientists call this "kinesthetic memory" or "neuro-muscular facilitation" and they speak of "sensory-motor" learning‚ since you are combining sensing input‚ i.e. what you see with your eyes‚ with motor output‚ i.e. what you do with your body. Of course‚ during the "drill-and-practice"‚ your muscles aren’t really memorizing

    Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to use the muscle tension and the electrical activity in the dominant and non-dominant forearm muscle‚ the flexor digitorum superficialis‚ to analyze the determinants of muscle tension and fatigue‚ and the reasons as to why differences may occur between the dominant and non-dominant arm. The generation of tension in a muscle is determined by the major type of motor unit being recruited‚ as well as the rate in which action potentials are being fired. A subject

    of the signals depend upon the position of the electrodes (Brown‚ 1999) (Conover‚ 1992). The SA node produces the pacemaker potential and if this reaches the threshold then an action potential is generated. There are five stages involved during cardiac action potentials‚ during these stages there is a flow of ions through

    simple. I’m not saying it is easy‚ but fundamentally it is very straight forward.In order to lay the ground work‚ let me establish 3 main tricks for you when it comes to stimulate arm growth. 1. Relatively speaking‚ biceps and triceps are small muscle gourps 2. Your biceps are heavily stimualted every time you perform a basic pulling movement for your back 3. Your triceps are heavily stimulated every time you rperform a basic pressing movememnt for your chest or for your shoulders So keeping
