We use fifteen different muscles(肌肉)in our face,and laughing is good for every organ(器官) in our body.When we laugh,we breathe quickly and exercise the face,shoulders and chest.Our blood pressure goes down,and our circulation(血液循环) gets better. Our heartbeat gets slower and our brai...
When you think about your muscles,you probably think about the ones you can control.These are your voluntary (随意的) muscles.They are connected to your bones (骨骼) and work together with your bones to help you walk,run,pick up things or ride a bicycle.The muscles of...
Fatigue in leg muscles might differ between running and cycling due to inherent differences in muscle activation patterns. Moreover, postural demand placed upon the diaphragm during running could augment the development of diaphragm fatigue. We investigated quadriceps and diaphragm fatigue in 11 runners ...
Despite the role of calf muscles in activities of daily living and knee mechanics, little work has investigated calf changes in knee OA. Unlike the thigh, muscle and fat in the lower leg can be imaged using a peripheral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. We aimed to assess agreement ...
There are two major muscles in the calf, or lower leg — the gastrocnemius and soleus. As both are powerful plantarflexors of theankle joint, meaning that they point the foot downward, both are susceptible to calf muscle injury during explosive movements that require pushing off the ground, ...

The analysis of the force produced by each muscle has great clinical relevance, guiding professionals to training or treatments that are more precise, specific, and individualized to structures and muscles of interest. The aim of this study was to estimate the individual muscle force of the shoulde...
1996). Previously, pennation angles of MG, LG, and SOL were found to be smaller in YM than in OM with the similar magnitude of age-related differences among the muscles (Morse et al., 2005). This suggests that the value of one of the three muscles seem to represent the corresponding ...
A volume of 100 ml of blood was taken by venipuncture for neutrophil labelling in the early morning of the exercise day. The Tc-99m neutrophils were re-infused intravenously before the eccentric exercise. The exercise stimulus consisted of 300 eccentric repetitions of the right quadriceps muscles...
