How can humans push when human muscles can only pull?
by having groups of muscles. one pulling one way one pulling the other way
Lactic acid fermentation, which occurs in muscle cells when there is a lack of oxygen, only produces two molecules of ATP per glucose molecule. Aerobic respiration produces 34-38 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule. So, in order to produce enough ATP to function, there needs to be more glucose available.
Striated muscles contain bundled striations visible lines under a microscope. These muscles are attached to the skeleton and found at long bones, such as the muscles of thighs. Unlike smooth muscle, striated muscles contain repeating functional units called sarcomere. The muscles are under voluntary control (unlike smooth muscles) and permit strenuous work.
What muscles does the Schwinn 43o elliptical trainer work out?
The schwinn 430 elliptical trainer trains mostly your leg muscles. It also offers a strong workout to your arm muscles by allowing you to use the handlebars in the front.
What organs are related to hypercholesterolemia?

How do you develop fast twitch muscles?
1- Weight training.
Lifting in excess of 60% of your one rep maximum will trigger the fast-twitch fibres. Lifting in excess of 75% is best.
2- Plyometric training.
For example jumping off of a platform 50cm above ground level, and then jumping again immediately upon landing is a plyometric movement.
3- Complex training.
A combination of weight training and plyometrics. Example, a set of squats followed by a rest period, and then the plyometric exercise listed above.
4- Over-speed training.
Performing above maximum ability, such as sprinting downhill.
5- Eccentric training.
Train eccentrically. In other words, emphasising the negative movement. This would be the downward movement in a squat or the bench press.
Also note that adequate rest time is vital. You'll need 24-48 hours rest after an intense session. Allow another 24 hours if you wish to be prepared for a peak performance (for example if you're competing).
Muscles are named according to what?
Muscles are names according to size, shape, direction of fibers, location, attachment, number of attachments, and function.
