A muscle contraction happens when too much force or stress is forced upon a muscle cavity. Dr. Whitmore PHD
these factors can increase central venous pressure: decreased cardiac output, increased blood volume, venous constriction,forced expiration, muscle contraction

Most important muscle of inspiration is the diaphragm, which upon contraction, pulls the base of the lung down and increases the pressure inside of the lung, drawing air into the lungs. Other muscles that are not as important except for in forced inspiration are the intercostal muscles and sternocleidomastoid muscles, which only work when forced expiration is required as well :)
The obliquus externus, or external oblique muscle, is a key muscle in the abdominal wall. Its primary functions include aiding in the rotation and lateral flexion of the trunk, as well as providing support for the abdominal organs. Additionally, it plays a role in movements such as bending and twisting, and it assists in the processes of forced expiration and stabilizing the pelvis during movement. The muscle also contributes to trunk flexion when acting bilaterally.
The rectus abdominis muscle compresses the abdominal contents when contracted. It is a paired muscle that runs vertically along the anterior abdominal wall and is responsible for flexing the trunk and assisting in forced exhalation.
constant contraction of a muscle is called the muscle tone
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.
