Latent period; Delay
This is the time required for excitation, excitation-contraction coupling, and tensing of the elastic components of the muscle

Occurs when acetylcholine (ACh) accumulates in the neuromuscular junction. It is called a tetanic contraction.
Isometric contraction. This type of contraction occurs when the muscle generates tension without changing its length, such as when holding a weight in a fixed position.
Similarly, a period of recession occurs at the start of the contraction phase.
a concentric contraction- a concentric contraction involves the muscle length, shortening during a contraction! YA-trick-YA!
purkinje fibers
your muscles moves, moving ligaments and tendons
diaphragm....
Inhalation requires the contraction of the diaphragm, and exhalation occurs when it relaxes.
Latent Period
contractions in the downward phase of a pressup.
no. it occurs at the beginning of isovolumetric relaxation.
