Note that more than one criterion may apply in some cases.

Experiment 2: Skeletal Muscle ABSTRACT Frog skeletal muscle is used as an animal model to study muscle contraction. The objectives of this experiment is to demonstrate the physiological responses of skeletal muscle to electrical stimuli using frog gastrocnemius‚ to understand twitch‚ summation‚ tetanus and fatigue‚ to investigate the relationship between initial tension and force of contraction‚ to explore the differences between human and frog skeletal muscle. The threshold voltage is 0.4V. The

Static Contraction Weight Lifting Going to the gym‚ I notice people blindly bouncing from weight machine to machine until they do enough repetitions to make the target muscle group tired. Isn’t that the goal of working out? Tiring yourself out so your body grows more muscle? No‚ unfortunately that is not how it works. Working out with the purpose of gaining muscle and strength requires more than just getting “tired” and it must be more than just a habit. One of the best ways to train your body

able to exert great bodily or muscular power. Another component of muscular fitness that is crucial is muscular endurance‚ which is the ability to perform a specific muscular action for a prolonged period of time. For example‚ performing 50 squats with a weight of 50 kilograms on the shoulders requires both attributes‚ 150 squats without weight requires more muscular endurance while the ability to perform a single squat with a weight of 200 kilograms depends on muscular strength. Different tests are
