All I know is that acetylcholine is the only neurotransmitter that transmits signals from nerves to skeletal muscles, so anything that blocks it would probably have the effect of you wanting to move your muscles, but either not being able to, or moving weakly. Just a (educated) guess. It would cause spastic paralysis (muscles are contracted and unable to relax)
