Study Notes
Muscle Performance
- Muscle performance is the ability of a muscle to do work.
- Key elements include strength, power, and endurance.
- Improving muscle performance requires attention to all three aspects.
Factors Affecting Muscle Performance
- Multiple body systems influence muscle performance.
- Morphological (structural) qualities of the muscle matter.
- Neurological, biochemical, and biomechanical factors play a role.
- Metabolic, cardiovascular, respiratory, and emotional functions are also involved.
Causes of Impaired Muscle Performance
- Diseases, injuries, or lesions affecting the musculoskeletal or neuromuscular systems can impair performance.
- Immobilization weakens muscles.
- Lack of use or inactivity also reduces muscle performance.
