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...
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...
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, l...
This study aimed to investigate the influence of sex on the hip and knee frontal plane kinematics and the EMG responses of the hip abductors and knee extensor muscles during the single-leg squat before and after hip abductor fatigue. Methods: A total of 30 participants...
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 ...
Some characteristics generally related to meat quality were evaluated in several muscles from the leg of the ostrich. Ostrich meat is characterised by a relatively high pHf and low intramuscular fat content. Although standard slaughtering procedures of ostriches at present comprise the removal of legs...

However, the fiber characteristics in SG and FG broilers are still not well understood, particularly in the leg muscles. In this study, Xueshan (SG broilers, China) and Ross 308 (FG broilers, Britain) broilers were selected. Additionally, the composition of different fiber types and ...
Wall reaction forces, EMG of selected leg muscles, soft tissue compartment and shoe heel cup accelerations were quantified for two different impact conditions. The transmissibility of the impact acceleration to the soft tissue compartments was determined for each subject/soft tissue compartment/shoe ...
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...
