9476208724 | Isotonic Contraction | Of or involving muscular contraction against resistance in which the length of the muscle changes. Antonym is isometric. Isotonic movements are either concentric (working muscle shortens) or eccentric (working muscle lengthens). | 45 | |
9476228182 | Name and describe three periods of muscle twitch? | Latent - The latent period is the time from when the stimulus is delivered to the first indications of contraction in the muscle Contraction - The contraction period, or contraction time, is the time it takes the muscle to reach its peak contraction after the latent period. Relaxation - The relaxation period is the time the muscle takes to return to resting tension after reaching its peak contraction. | 46 | |

9476543236 | Fast fibers | White, anaerobic glycolysis, fast fatigue. A muscle usually has mixed fiber types. Fibers in one motor unit are the same type | 53 | |
9476547506 | What makes a given muscle contract fast? | Less load, recruit more muscle fibers, more fast fibers (through resistance exercise) | 54 | |
9476553542 | What makes a given muscle contract for longer duration? | Less load, recruit more muscle fibers, more slow fibers (through endurance exercise) | 55 | |
