Skeletal muscle makes up about 40% of the mass of the average human body. Muscles are the engine that propels the body. They turn energy into motion and efficient at turning fuel into motion.
They are long lasting, self healing and grow stronger with practice.
Strongest muscle?????

Muscles are made of elastic fibers. These fibers are like a rubber band that lengthens and shortens. The thick and thin filaments do the actual work of a muscle.A muscle contraction occurs when these fibers
generate tension through the action of actinand myosin cross-bridging.This process describes the sliding of myosin and actin filaments over each other.

Thick filaments are made of protein called myosin.
Thin filaments are made of another protein called actin.

Muscles cannot push- they can only pull. Even when you push against a wall,
each muscle in your body is working by pulling.
When the muscles relax they stop pulling and your arm and another muscle straightens it.

There are over 600 muscles that make up the muscular fibers that are held together by connective tissue
![Page 9: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Properties or characteristics of muscles-
Excitability- ability to respond to a nerve impulse
Contractibility- muscle fibers that are stimulated by nerves- they contract or become short and thick
Extensibility- ability to be stretched Elasticity- allows the muscle to
return to its original shape after it has contracted or stretched

Main types of muscles: 1. cardiac 2. visceral-smooth muscles 3. skeletal- striatedCan be described as voluntary and
involuntary
![Page 11: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cardiac- These muscles form the walls of the
heart Contract to circulate blood Involuntary- function without us thinking
about it
![Page 12: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cardiac muscle is involuntary striated muscle. huge number of mitochondria per cell to make energy.

visceral or smooth- Found in the internal organs of the body
such as the digestive system, respiratory system, blood vessels and the eyes
These contract to cause movement in these systems
Involuntary function without conscious control
![Page 15: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Smooth muscle is found in your airway, digestive system, blood vessels and in females the uterus.
Smooth muscle can stretch and maintain tension for long periods of time.
It contracts involuntarily without you thinking about it.
![Page 16: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Are small and not striated They are made up of thick and thin
filaments They have intermediate filaments that
cross like fish-net stockings Intermediate filaments slide across thin
filaments and draw the muscle up in all directions

Skeletal or striated- Attach to bones Cause body movement Voluntary- person has control over their
actions
![Page 19: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

How muscles attach to bone:1.Tendons- strong tough connective
tissue cord2. fascia- tough sheet-like membrane
that hold muscles together,covers and protects tissue
3. Origin and insertion- when muscle attaches to bone one section becomes the origin (which does not move) and one end is the insertion (the end that moves when the muscle contracts)

Actions of the muscles: Adduction- moving a body part toward
the midline Abduction- moving a body part away
from the midline Flexion- decreasing the angle between
2 bones or bending a body part Extension- increasing the angle
between 2 bones or straightening a body part
![Page 23: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Actions or movement continued: Rotation- turning a body part around it’s
own axis- like turning the head side to side
Circumduction- moving in a circle at a joint
moving one end of a body part in a circle while the other end stays stationary- like swinging the arm in a circle
Seed question- which joints circumduct and which joints rotate?
![Page 24: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Actions continued:Supination- a rotation of the arm or foot
in which the hand can face up and foot tipped to the outer edge
Pronation- when hand faces down and the foot flattens out so that the arch strikes the ground.

Muscular dystrophy- this is an inherited disease that leads to chronic muscle atrophy. It appears in early childhood and most types result in severe disability and early death due to fat tissue replacing the muscle fibers effecting cardiac muscle.
There is no cure, but physical therapy can slow the progression
![Page 32: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Signs and symptoms of MD vary according to the type of muscular dystrophy. In general, muscular dystrophy symptoms may include:
Muscle weakness Apparent lack of coordination Progressive crippling, resulting in
fixations (contractures) of the muscles around your joints and loss of mobility
![Page 33: Are you strong enough? MUSCLE= latin ‘musculus’=little mouse](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081603/5697bf901a28abf838c8e029/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Myasthenia gravis- a chronic condition where nerve impulses are not properly transmitted through the muscle. This leads to weakness and paralysis. Any effort gives extreme fatigue.
If the condition affects the respiratory muscles it can lead to respiratory failure and death.

Strain- is an overstretching or injury to a muscle and or tendon. Prolonged or sudden muscle exertion is usually the cause.
Usually symptoms are edema, limited movement and pain.
Treatment is rest, muscle relaxant, pain medication, elevate the extremity and alternate hot and cold applications.
