    Concentric: A concentric action is when the muscle length decreases to perform movement. The muscle provides the force to cause movement. When a muscle is exerting force greater than the resistive force, resulting in shortening of the muscle.  Eccentric: An eccentric action is when a muscle is lengthened during contraction. The muscle provides the force to resist movement. This muscle action results when the resistive force is greater than the muscle force generated. Isometric: An isometric action

    Conduction Velocity Lab

    In exercise one we got a threshold at 0.1 V, which showed our nerve was properly removed. This threshold was for a compound action potential and not an action potential. As we increased our stimulus to 0.6 V our p-p (height of CAP) also increased as seen in Table 1 and Figure 1. The increase seen is probably due to the activation of other fibers within our nerve. Even though there was a positive correlation between increasing the voltage and our p-p, eventually a maximum stimulus voltage will be

    Click here to enter text. The results in Figure 2. show that increasing the stimulus strength (V) from 0 to o.40V will result in an increase of Active Muscle force generated by the gastrocnemius muscle in the Buffo Marinus, confirming the hypothesis. The force generated plateaus when the stimulus is beyond o.40V. 2. Discuss the biological processes that explain why peak contractile force changes with different stimulus strengths. As the stimulus strengthens, action potentials are conducted at

    Benefits of Stretching The body is flexible. It is supposed to be flexible. You must be able to bend and reach that something you dropped on the floor. You must be able to zip the back of your favorite dress on your own. You must be able to reach that book you need to read at the top shelf. These are simple activities. Nothing grand about them, you merely stretched out a bit. However, if there are difficulties in doing such simple motions, then you have to stretch your limits. You already need

    • 4 Pages

    How to build muscle More strength is more muscle. The heavier the weights you lift, the stronger your body becomes, and the bigger your muscles grow. Your muscles increase in size so they can lift heavier weights. This is why strength is size – lift heavy weights and you’ll gain muscle mass naturally. Most people try to build muscle by doing high rep isolation exercises until pumped and sore. But this rarely works because you can’t lift heavy enough to trigger muscle growth. Only lifters who are
