The muscle belly is the main bulk of the muscle, made up of many layers of tissue surrounded by fascia (sheets of connective tissue running throughout your body). The structure of a muscle, from macro (large) to micro (small) is: 1. muscle belly - a bundle of fascicles 2. fascicle - a bundle of fibers 3. fiber - a muscle cell (bundle of myofibrils) 4. myofibril - a bundle of myofilaments 5. filament - actin & myosin proteins The fascia in the muscle, called deep fascia (as opposed to superficial fascia which lies just beneath the skin) has 3 layers: 1. epimysium - an overcoat of dense connective tissue surrounding the entire muscle 2. perimysium - fibrous connective tissue that surrounds each fascicle (bundle of muscle fibers) 3. endomysium - sheath of connective tissue surrounding each muscle fiber
