How do muscles work and create movement? Muscles turn energy into motion Everything you do is expressed as muscular motion The basic action of any muscle is contraction A muscle is a bundle of cells called fibers A muscle fiber contains myofibrils, which are cylinders of muscle proteins The proteins allow a muscle cell to contract The contractions of all muscles are triggered by electrical impulses
4
Continued…… Muscles have a mixture of two basic types of fibers; 1. Fast twitch muscle fibers – capable of developing greater forces, contract faster, and have greater anaerobic capacity What are some anaerobic activities? What are some anaerobic activities? 1. 2. Slow twitch muscle fibers – develop force slowly, maintain contractions longer, and have higher aerobic capacity What are some aerobic activities? What are some aerobic activities?
