You are assuming that it is possible to increase the elasticity in your muscles, and it is not clear that it is. Muscles are connected to tendons (that are connected to bones). Muscles and tendons work together. When one uses stretching exercises to increase flexibility, one is actually always stretching muscles along with tendons. It is not really possible to separate them. If you want greater flexibility, do a whole body stretching routine 2 or 3 times weekly. It's very important to stretch muscles and tendons that are warm and full of blood; otherwise, you may injure yourself. So, stretch after exercise rather than before exercise. It is also important to avoid ballistic stretching if you are after increased flexibility. Stretch slowly and try to feel the stretch. Stretch just to the point of discomfort and hold the stretch for at least 20 or 30 seconds. Do not bounce. If you follow these guidelines, your flexibility will gradually improve. Remember, though, that there are great individual differences. Just because someone else is able to do a certain stretch does not mean that you will be able to do it. So, 'listen' to your own body. ----

Why do your muscles become more pliable during exercise?
I'm not 100% sure but i think as the muscle gets warmer it gets much more flexible. So muscle pliability increases. This could be beneficial to someone doing sport as they could maybe prevent injury and may even improve performance.
How does starvation affect muscles?
Without nutrients that are at a lack due to starvation, muscles cannot function properly. They can beomce lean and thin without the protein to help them stay strong or grow. If there is no fat for energy, a starving body will begin to digest muscles for fuel and needed energy for the body.

Why is muscle pliability good?
Increased pliability of muscles: muscle spindles are located within muscle fibres. When muscle spindles are stretched the nerve impulses are made and information relative to the degree of stretch is sent to the nervous system. It then sends the messages back concerning how many motor units should be contracted in order to have a smooth movement. When your body is used to steady state exercise the more efficient your muscles spindles become at transmitting information, and the more pliable muscles become
The rocks in the asthenosphere are hotter and more pliable than the rocks in the lower lithosphere?
No.
A sentence using the word pliable?

What are the short term effects of exercise on the musculoskeletal?
•Increase in temperature •Increase in metabolic activity as a result, greater demand for oxygen, therefore there is an increase in blood supply to the muscles as the capillaries dilate. •Muscle Damage - warm muscles are more pliable and the risk of damage and injury is reduced. •Fatigue and build up of lactic acid
Why do fish become soft again after they die hard?
For so long as the muscles contain a reserve of energy, these substances can be replaced by one set of enzymes as fast as they are destroyed by another; thus the muscles stay pliable for a time after death.
