Voluntary means it's under your direct control. You think about the muscles moving and they move to do whatever you told them to do. The brain sends an electric signal to the muscle(s) and cause them to move.

What is the nerve impulse pathway of a voluntary action?

The nerve impulse pathway of a voluntary action begins in the brain, where motor commands are generated in the motor cortex. These signals travel down the spinal cord through upper motor neurons, which synapse with lower motor neurons in the spinal gray matter. The lower motor neurons then send impulses through their axons to the skeletal muscles, causing contraction and movement. This entire process involves the integration of sensory feedback and coordination from various brain regions to execute the voluntary action smoothly.
