Longer muscle fibers contract more quickly than shorter
muscle fibers because all of the sarcomeres in a single muscle fiber contract at the same time.
Your body will use more
muscle fibers because you have to move as fast as possible.
This is effective because you're applying maximum out of force, it recruits more
muscle fibers because of the extra effort needed to increase the speed of the movement.
This only develops half
the Muscle Fibers because you are only making the Fiber work in one direction.
I have been theorizing that a large portion of my muscle mass is this type of
muscle fiber because of the carbohydrate eating, and that when I «go low carb» I essentially starve those muscle fibers and they begin to breakdown giving me the feeling that my body is eating itself.
Not exact matches

because he seems to push the ball with his body which means he most likely has a dominant slow twitch
muscle fibers and may not improve much if at all.
The first concept to understand in the trifecta is that using resistance training draws more energy from your body
because you use type II
muscle fibers «'' which have a high power output but fatigue fast.
Also,
because the
muscle fibers are not kept together by the connective tissue anymore, they can be easily «pulled,» or broken into individual
fibers.
That's in part
because researchers must properly align everything from motor proteins within cells on the nanoscale to much larger
muscle fibers and bundles of
fibers on the centimeter scale.
Salt is key to a good link
because it dissolves the
muscle fiber in meat so the fat can float in a chewy protein matrix.
The heart moves the way it does
because of its bundles of striated
muscle fibers, which are oriented spirally in the same direction and work together to effect motion.
The color was a problem:
Because of a lack of myoglobin — an oxygen - binding protein in
muscle fibers — the cultured meat looked white instead of red.
This process is also important in adult life
because muscle stem cells fuse with existing
fibers to achieve
muscle growth and help regenerate damaged
muscles.

because textiles can interact with the user as displays based on electrochromic or electroluminescent
fibers or by movement, such as artificial
muscles.
Then, weightlifting creates a lot of
muscle damage that increases post-workout metabolism
because it takes energy to repair the
muscle fibers you've destroyed while training, which equals to even more calories burned.
However, these definitions are way too simplistic and merely serve a descriptive purpose,
because in reality no
muscle works in isolation — each
muscle or group of
muscle fibers works in synergy with others, functioning as one big unit at all times, even though some parts may be working harder than others during different movements.
Now, according to research,
because of the angle and orientation of the upper
fibers of the trapezius
muscle, it is almost impossible for this
muscle to produce any significant elevation of the shoulder blades when the arm is in a neutral position.
That's not a problem, though,
because this type of training makes sure that you exit the gym with the greatest number of overloaded
muscle fibers possible.
The majority of studies seem to support the claim that the dumbbell bench press is a better option for anyone looking to increase his chest size, mainly
because of the greater range of motion involved — a greater range of motion on pressing movements means more horizontal flexion and adduction and a greater recruitment of chest
muscle fibers.
Because they carry a large percentage of fast - twitch
muscle fibers, mesomorphs will greatly benefit from lower to moderate reps (5 - 8 reps) and heavy weights.
This division of
muscle fibers affects how
muscles react to physical training
because every type has a unique ability to contract and every person has a genetically fixed mixture of these two
muscle types.
Ectomorphs have difficulties building mass
because the larger percent of their
muscle fibers are slow twitch, they are usually insulin resistant, and have naturally high metabolism.
The technique forces your
muscle to recruit more
muscle fibers to complete a movement
because many of the
fibers inside the
muscle are already blasted.
This is
because increased endurance work begins to reduce the main
muscle fibers that are associated with growth — type 2b — and start to increase the use of type 2a
fibers — the ones with less potential for growth.
Because of the tears in
muscle fibers, our body sets up a recovery process to help reduce the stress upon the body.
Kettlebell swings are ideal for strengthening the posterior chain
because of the way their eccentric phase increases innervation of intrafusal
muscle fibers.
Tabata training (and HIIT) both share one great advantage for guys looking to hold onto
muscle mass: Unlike traditional steady - state cardio, high - intensity intervals help you build and maintain
muscle mass
because the fast - twitch
fibers — the ones most prone to growth, — are best targeted by this type of training.
Repetitions from 1 to 5 build strength (and
muscle in some cases)
because they use specific energy stores and specific
muscle fibers.
Many athletes drink protein shakes after their strength training workouts
because protein helps repair damaged tissue and
muscle fibers to create strong, lean
muscle.
We get stronger and lift more weight or do more reps
because there's an increase in both the water and the blood volume in your
muscle fibers.
On the muscular system,
because the eccentric phase is done with additional loads, on the nervous system,
because there is a potentiation effect when you let go of the dumbbells and the nervous system sends a stronger signal to the
muscle fiber to fire.
Whereas, HIIT training is something that is going to specifically target fat and it will not encourage
muscle loss
because it can effectively help build up fast twitch
muscle fibers which will help maximize
muscle retention altogether.
This may allow strength and power athletes to produce even greater power outputs temporarily
because of the greater
fiber - specific contraction velocity of type IIX
muscle fibers (Anderson and Aagaard, 2010).
This means that force production is greater (and more efficient) in the eccentric phase than the concentric phase,
because passive elements resist lengthening of the
muscle fibers in the eccentric phase, but not in the concentric phase.
The reason you terminated the exercise at rep 10 is
because the whole
muscle lacked the strength to lift the weight, but only some of the Fast B
fibers were fatigued.
It is particularly difficult
because type II
muscle fiber area tends to increase by more than type I
muscle fiber area anyway.
Normally performed exercise programs usually do not train all or most of the
fibers in a whole
muscle due to the way
muscle fibers are activated during exercise and
because muscle fibers have widely varying levels of endurance.
They won't grow
because the stress isn't enough at any point to trigger a hypertrophy response (i.e. you never achieve momentary
muscle failure or come anywhere close), but it demonstrates that any activity of long duration will exhaust fast twitch
fibers, regardless of load.
My physiological explanation is a bit different — I suggest it is
because different
muscle fibers are being trained at the varying power outputs required by the three workouts.
Because the biceps and triceps have a less overall volume of
muscle fibers it doesn't require as much stimulus to fatigue these
muscle groups and deplete glycogen stores.
The enhancement in
muscle force and power following 3 - 4 months of heavy resistance strength training mainly occurs
because fast
fibers exhibit a two fold greater hypertrophy overall than slow
fibers (remember slow
fibers are relatively unaltered).
Because the heavier weight uses more
muscle fibers you can get away with less sets and reps.. Another thing to consider when you go heavy is that the high threshold motor units are activated.
But if you can increase your strength with these movements then you'll be able to push yourself harder when using kettle bells, steel clubs, battle ropes, etc
because you have more
muscle fibers to recruit.
Because strength training builds new
muscle fiber, you metabolism grows higher and higher.
Because of this, our bodies will actually breakdown our
muscle fibers and use them for energy and this has some big time negative impacts.
(There has to be some stretch in the
muscle for ideal
fiber alignment and therefore max - force production; in fact the closer you get to full contraction, the less force you can produce
because of
fiber crowding and bunching.)
The reason Reclining on the Sun Exercise works so well is
because you are incorporating the stability
muscles in your triceps which means essentially that you are incorporating more
muscle fibers.
In this example, there is no such increase in hormonal activity (
because there is no engagement of anaerobic
muscle fibers), and there is no need to clear anaerobic waste (
because there is no anaerobic activity).
It's just the same thing you said it very well here: «The reason the anyone's heart rate exceeds MAF under every circumstance except for activity that lasts under 2 seconds is
because the brain recruits anaerobic
muscle fibers on top of the aerobic
fibers that are already working.
