What substance in muscle stores oxygen temporarily?
Myoglobin is synthesized in muscle cells and imparts the reddish-brown color of skeletal muscle tissue. Like hemoglobin, myoglobin can combine loosely with oxygen. This ability to temporarily store oxygen reduces a muscle's requirement for a continuous blood supply during muscular contraction.

A herniation is the protrusion of muscle substance through a tear.
What are two types of static stretching?
Static stretching are low-force, long duration stretches that evoke a temporary increase in muscle tension due to muscle lengthening. After 7 to 10 seconds of a low-force stretch, the increase in muscle tension activates a GTO (golgi tendon organ) response. Under GTO activation, muscle spindle activity within the stretched muscle is temporarily inhibited, allowing further muscle stretching.Dynamic stretching are low-grade muscle contractions of an antagonist (a muscle that acts in opposition of another) muscle for 6 to 15 seconds inhibit or reduce muscle spindle activity within a agonist muscle. This reduces muscle tonicity, allowing that muscle to be stretched.
Why do a woman's get cramps?
cramping is caused by excessive amounts of prostaglandin, a hormone-like substance that causes the uterine walls to contract, temporarily cutting off the blood supply to the uterus, depriving the muscle of oxygen and causing pain.

How does weightlifting increase metabolism?
because it increase your lean muscle mass which will increase your metabolism as each pound of muscle has many chemical reaction occur within them
