exercising muscle (group) Explanation: Will this be of help? Worterbuch Der Bildgebenden Verfahren/Dictionary of Medical Imaging: http://books.google.com/books?id=HiAdBQV1qfQC&pg=PT29&lpg=PT... "The “glycogen shunt” in exercising muscle: A role for glycogen in muscle energetics and fatigue. Stimulated by recent 13C and 31P NMR studies of exercising muscle, we propose a model of the energetics of contraction. ' http://www.pnas.org/content/98/2/457.full?ck=nck |

Skeletal muscles Explanation: Ich halte von dem Begriff "Abeitsmuskulatur" nicht viel. er wird z.B. in der Kardiologie verwendet: Ultrastruktur der Purkinje-Fasern und der subendokardialen Arbeitsmuskulatur in explantierten Herzen mit dilatativer Kardiomyopathie oder ischämischer ... www.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/archiv/1634/ - 8k Und die wird wahrscheinlich während der Massage kaum gelockert. Ich den ke erher es handelt sich hier um ein "Lifestyle"-Synonym for "Skelettmuskulatur", die einer Massage schon eher zugänglich ist. Muscle Types Muscle tissue consists of fibers (cells) that are highly specialized for the active generation of force for contraction. Because of this characteristic, muscle tissue provides motion, maintenance of posture, and heat production. Based on certain structural and functional characteristics, muscle tissue is classified into three types: cardiac, smooth and skeletal. Cardiac Cardiac muscle tissue forms the bulk of the wall of the heart. Like skeletal muscle tissue, it is striated (the muscle fibers contain alternating light and dark bands (striations) that are perpendicular to the long axes of the fibers). Unlike skeletal muscle tissue, its contraction is usually not under conscious control (involuntary). Smooth Smooth muscle tissue is located in the walls of hollow internal structures such as blood vessels, the stomach, intestines, and urinary bladder. Smooth muscle fibers are usually involuntary, and they are nonstriated (smooth). Smooth muscle tissue, like skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue, can undergo hypertrophy. In addition, certain smooth muscle fibres, such as those in the uterus, retain their capacity for division and can grow by hyperplasia. Skeletal Skeletal muscle tissue is named for its location - attached to bones. It is striated; that is, the fibers (cells) contain alternating light and dark bands (striations) that are perpendicular to the long axes of the fibers. Skeletal muscle tissue can be made to contract or relax by conscious control (voluntary). All skeletal muscle fibres are not alike in structure or function. For example, skeletal muscle fibres vary in colour depending on their content of myoglobin (myoglobin stores oxygen until needed by the mitochondria). Skeletal muscle fibres contract with different velocities, depending on their ability to split. Faster contracting fibres have greater ability to split ATP. In addition, skeletal muscle fibres vary with respect to the metabolic processes they use to generate ATP. They also differ in terms of the onset of fatigue. Based on various structural and functional characteristics, skeletal muscle fibres are classified into three types: Type I fibres, Type II B fibres and type II A fibres. http://www.brianmac.co.uk/muscle.htm If physical therapy is used to stretch and strengthen skeletal muscles, massage will be a safe, indicated choice. The only caution is that people with very ... en.allexperts.com/q/Massage-1818/contraindications-cerebral-palsy.htm - 18k |
