Muscle twitch has how many phases? What are they?
|
Three phases:
Lag phase Contraction Relaxation |
|
What is summation?
|
Increasing force of contraction of muscle fiber.
|
|
What is recruitment?
|
Increasing the number of muscle fibers contracting.
|
|
What is tetanus?
|
Sustained contraction that is immediately followed by another, hence the muscle does not reurn to a resting state (due to increased frequency of stimuli), the effects are added
|
|
What is fatigue?
|
Muscle eventually runs out of ATP, fibers cannot contract.
|
|
What is a characteristic of unfused (incomplete) tetanus?
|
Some relaxation occurs between contractions, the result is summation.
|
|
The force produced in _______ _______ stimulates receptor and membrane sensitivities to ________ factors, including ________ which lead to muscle growth and strength changes
|
activated fibers; anabolic; hormones
|
|
______ responses are tightly linked to the characteristics of the ________ _______ protocol.
|
hormone; resistance exercise

|
Anabolic hormones promote tissue building;
1. 2. 3 4. |
1. insulin
2. insulin-like growth factor 3. testosterone 4. growth hormone |
|
