What is series elastic component?
The series elastic component of a muscle is part of the mechanical model of plyometric exercise. The tendons attached to the muscle constitute the majority of the series elastic component. When the musculotendinous unit is stretched, as in eccentric muscle action, the SEC acts as a spring and is lengthened; as it lengthens, elastic energy is stored. IF the muscle begins a concentric action immediately after the eccentric actiopm, the stored energy is released, allowing the SEC to contribute to total force production by naturally returning the muscle and tendons to their unstretched configuration.
Are you entitled to a lunch break if you worked an eight hour shift and is paid eight hour?
I'm not sure about legalities, but it is standard occupational practices to offer a 30 minute or 1 hour paid lunch break to full-time employees working 8 hour shifts. Part-time employees often get unpaid breaks, but they are still offered at least 30 minutes during an 8-hour shift. In addition, many employers volunteer additional 15-minute breaks depending on the type of work.

Who are some famous exercise physiologists?
August Krogh- In 1920 August Krogh was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of the mechanism of regulation of the capillaries in skeletal muscle. Krogh was first to describe the adaptation of blood perfusion in muscle and other organs according to demands through opening and closing the arterioles and capillaries. JS Haldane- John Scott Haldane helped find out how to determine the regulation of breathing and discovered the Haldane effect in hemoglobin. He was the founder of The Journal of Hygiene. In 1907 Haldane made a decompression apparatus to help make deep-sea divers safer and produced the first decompression tables after extensive experiments with animals.[1][2][3] He was also an authority on the effects of pulmonary diseases, such as silicosis caused by inhaling silica dust Walter Cannon- studied effect of SNS during exercise D.B. Dill- directed the Harvard fatigue lab which studied exercise and environmental physiology Per Olof Astrand- studied cardiac output and max heart rate during exercise
Can you exercise if you have heart murmur?
Let me start off by saying I am NOT a doctor. But I do have a heart murmer and I do exercise on a regular basis with no real symptoms or abnormalities. However, I have noticed and brought to my doctors attention that if I do any prolonged and hard cardio workouts (ie., crossfit, conditioning, or high intensity circuit training) I will get sharp pains in my chest after the workout. As anyone will tell you you should always talk to your doctor about your condition and the limits you should place on yourself. Don't forget that exercise makes your heart stronger it is a muscle so the more you do the better off you are.
Answer 2: I too have a heart murmur and walk and do any exercise I want to. I love exercise. Please see a cardiologist if you are worried, there are test you can take, but he can advise you best on a program of exercise.
How much weight will you lose if you run a mile do sit ups and push ups and Fluidity every day?
Fluidity is just another trendy commercial exercise regimen. It's not any more effective than any other comparable form of exercise, but it may give beginners an idea of where to start if you do not have much experience doing exercise. But be aware, much like Chuck Norris probably does a lot more than just work out with the TotalGym and Tony Little more than just the Gazelle, the paid actors and actresses you see advertising it do much more than the Fluidity regimen.
Now to address your question: a mile is not very far to run, particularly if you are looking to lose weight. Aerobic exercise is key to losing weight, push-ups and sit-ups will not help you much in that area. They will add muscle tone and form and are highly recommendable, but they won't burn much fat.
If you are running to lose weight, you should jog at a slow pace (slow enough that you can carry on a mild conversation). This ensures that you are burning fat as opposed to muscle protein which gets burned if you are running fast and the time it takes fat to be liberated for use is not available.
The good news if you cannot run more than a mile is that walking actually burns close to as many calories as running (yes, really) but doesn't have as many cardiovascular benefits. Try running then walking three miles every other day, increasing your running distance by 1/4 mile each week or two until you can run the full three. The weight will start coming off, but losing more than 2 lbs in a week is inadvisable.
You can make your weight loss more efficient by cutting back on food intake. DO NOT SKIP MEALS, just practice portion control and AVOID SNACKING.
flexibility is importent because it helps you from having joints or from not being able to work out when your older. flexibility must be done by everyone

Your arms look skinny from the side but bulky from the front How do you make them skinny all over?
its normal, last guy was a jerk. the best thing to do is upper arm exercizes. if ur arms aren't "in shape" then it will tkae a while (my arms looked fine but i didn't use the muscles) so it took about 2-3 months and I'm just now getting some atractive muscle definition. using dumbells, freeweights (hold them out to the side till ur arms are going to break. then rest for a few secs and hold them out front, ect), and gym machines are good too =)

Rate limiters retard or impede development. In running the primary rate limiters are self-organizing, muscle endurance, and muscle strength of each individual.

Most likely low blood sugar and dehydration. Try eating more complex carbs throughout the day, sip on water, and warm up.

Answer There is NO average of sexual endurance. This is because there are no two people the same. Some men can ejackulate in a matter of minutes and others can hold on for hours, so sadly there is no way to answer your question fully as it's not known who can hold out and who can't.

Does it help if you do shorter exercise on the elliptical trainer and do it 2 times a day?
An effective elliptical workout can be completed in 15 to 20 minutes. The key to an effective elliptical workout is using intervals to build resistance. As you build resistance in those 15 to 20 minutes, instead of adding mroe time to your workout, opt to increase the incline or resistance level on the elliptical trainer.
The bulkiness of your muscles has nothing to do with the workout. It has everything to do with your eating habits. If you want a lean look then cut out carbs from your diet and use a good protein supplement which has Whey Protein Isolates. These are easily absorbed in your body and can give you that lean look. Work out as much as possible.
What effect does the glenoid cavity have on the shoulder joint?
the glenoid cavity is where the bone from the arm does all it's movements. it's essentially the "socket", if you consider the shoulder joint a ball and socket joint.
Why do muscles weigh more than fat?
Fat has less density than muscles, so fat will seem to weigh less than muscle. However, muscle is far better for the body than fat. Soit is always worth it to strength train and build up muscle.
Bowed legs typically come from two problems:
1. the bones of the legs can be actually "bowed", meaning that they are bent. This can be a deformity from childhood or the result of a bone disease. Very rare.
2. The knee joints start to fail resulting in a worn cartilige pad. If the pad is worn more on the inside of the knee it will result in the characteristic "old man" bowed knees. Replacing the knee joint with an artificial knee typically solves the problem.
