Some effective exercises to strengthen the hamstring tendons and prevent injuries include deadlifts, hamstring curls, Romanian deadlifts, and glute-ham raises. These exercises target the hamstring muscles and help improve their strength and flexibility, reducing the risk of injuries. It is important to perform these exercises with proper form and gradually increase the intensity to avoid strain on the tendons.

I have started having pain in the bottom of both my feet. I hurts to wear flat shoes and seems a little better when wearing heels. The pain is getting worse?

Sounds like you may have plantar fasciaitis, which is an inflammation of the tendonous area in the sole of your foot, or something similar. You may want to schedule an appointment with your physician to get the situation checked out.


What is the definition of a pennate muscle?

pennate is the opposite of parallel (fusiform) parallel muscle eg biceps brachii has fibres which run parallel, whereas pennate fibres run diagonally to the axis of movement, unipennate, bipennate and multipennate refers to the number of tendonous attachments unipennate muscle fibers which converge on one side of a tendon ca be found in the gluteus maximus, bipennate fibers converge in a featherlike way towards a central tendon, and multipennate converge on more tendons such as deltoid which has three heads.


Why would your neck pop right in the center of your spine where it joins your head?

Those are the bursa (the sacs of liquid between your vertabrae) suddenly expanding. It's harmless, really. It also means you have nice loose neck muscles. If your neck continually pops around the top of your head, I would not commend you on nice, loose neck muscles. A "pop" sound is not comming from a bursa between your vertabrae. Vertabrae, in fact, do not house bursae in any intervertebral manor. A vertebral disc is what sits in between two vertebrae (this creates a joint.) A bursa is a liquid sac that helps ligamentous and tendonous structures slide more easily past each other. These are found in larger joints, such as the knee, hip and shoulder. An articulation or a joint "pops". This sound comes from a release of nitrogen gas from the tissues that surround a joint, when there is a sudden negative pressure within the joint. This is harmless if it happens once in a blue moon, but if you experience this with any frequency, it is a sign of hypermobility or too much joint motion. This can lead to a problematic instability and even spinal degeneration. A chiropractor is the expert to see in this situation.


Describe the stucture of the heart?

The heart is about the size on a person's fist. It is made up of specialised cardiac muscle and is known as 'double pump' because each side of the heart works separately, the right side of the heart pumps blood from your heart to your lungs through the pulmonary artery. The left side of your heart pumps blood to other parts of your body through the aorta. The heart has four chambers a right atrium and ventricle and a left atrium and ventricle it also has special valves that make sure the blood is always pumped in the right direction. The muscle of the heart is specialised because it needs to be strong enough to beat everyday for a life time .The heart also has its own pacemaker, which sends electrical impulses to make sure the heart maintains a regular heart beat. The heart is made up of cardiac muscles.it has 4 chambers which separated by a partition called septum. The upper 2 chamber called atria and lower 2 are called ventricles. The left atrium is connected to left ventricles through a valve. The roght atrium is connected to the right ventricle through another valve. These valves prevent the backflow of of blood into atria when the ventricles contract to pump out the blood of the heart to the rest of the body. Ventricles have to pump blood into various organs with high pressure , so they have thicker walls than atria. The atries , veins and capillaries are a kind of thin pipes through which blood flows in the body . Through pulmonary veins oxygen reaches blood comes to left atrium from the lungs and then transferred in the left ventricle. Left ventricle contract and blood is pumped out to the whole body . Deoxygenated blood comes to right atrium from the whole body then it comes in the right ventricles and sent to the lungs by pulmonary artery.
