There really are only three kinds of muscles in the human body. They are the smooth, cardiac, and skeletal. The smooth muscles are the ones inside your internal organs like the stomach. The cardiac are the ones found in your heart. And, the skeletal ones are called voluntary because they are attached to your bones and make your body move.
