- have same 3kg weight that im trying to lift w/ my bicep but im changing the shape of my bicep. Moving this weight cause im contracting this muscle.
- The two types are concentric and eccentric

Definition
the muscle shortens and does work (e.g. lifting a weight)

Definition
- - resistance training.
- Tension increases to the muscle’s capacity, but the muscle neither shortens nor lengthens
- Occurs if the load is greater than the tension the muscle is able to develop

Definition
to contract and relax your muscles until you plateau so you have the maximum contractions needed to prepare for exercise
-
- Muscle enzyme systems become more efficient because heat is increased as muscle contracts

§When muscle contractile activity reaches 70% of maximum:
§Bulging muscles compress blood vessels
§Oxygen delivery is impaired
§Pyruvic acid is converted into lactic acid
§The lactic acid:
§Diffuses into the bloodstream
§Is picked up and used as fuel by the liver, kidneys, and heart
§Is converted back into pyruvic acid by the liver

-
§They contract in unison, reflecting their electrical coupling with gap junctions
§Action potentials are transmitted from cell to cell

Term
stress-relaxation response |
|
Definition
§ Smooth muscle responds to stretch only briefly, and then adapts to its new length
§ The new length, however, retains its ability to contract
This enables organs such as the stomach and bladder to temporarily store contents |

- – 1st step of cellular respiration. Only makes 2 ATP. Is anaerobic. Energy only last for 30-60s. makes latic acid that comes from pyruvic acid. (acids denature proteins) that is why the muscles hurt the next day. Cause muscles have been denatured and it takes a while for them to go back to their original shape. Have to keep workin out which grows more capillaries, glycosomes and myoglobin then muscles to stop producing latic acid.
