Muscle cells can increase in size through a process called hypertrophy, which typically occurs with resistance training or increased physical activity. This enlargement results from the synthesis of more proteins, leading to larger muscle fibers. However, muscle cells do not "expand" in the sense of stretching; instead, they grow by increasing their mass and volume. Additionally, muscle cells can also increase in number through a process called hyperplasia, although this is less common in humans.

Muscle cells.
Muscle cells are elongated in shape to allow for efficient contraction and force generation. Additionally, the size of the muscle cell is large to accommodate a substantial number of muscle proteins and energy stores needed for muscle function. These adaptations in shape and size enhance the muscle cell's ability to contract rapidly and powerfully.
