1. Muscle Physiology

2. Muscle Tissue

• Skeletal Muscle
• Cardiac Muscle
• Smooth Muscle

3. Cardiac Muscle


Branching cells
One/two nuclei per cell
Striated
Involuntary
Medium speed contractions

4. Smooth Muscle


Fusiform cells
One nucleus per cell
Nonstriated
Involuntary
Slow, wave-like
contractions

5. Skeletal Muscle


Long cylindrical cells
Many nuclei per cell
Striated
Voluntary
Rapid contractions

6. Skeletal Muscle


Produce movement
Maintain posture & body position
Support Soft Tissues
Guard entrance / exits
Maintain body temperature
Store nutrient reserves

29. Single Fiber Tension

The all–or–none principle
As a whole, a muscle fiber is
either contracted or relaxed
Tension of a Single Muscle
Fiber
Depends on
The number of pivoting crossbridges
The fiber’s resting length at
the time of stimulation
The frequency of stimulation
Length–tension relationship
-Number of pivoting crossbridges depends on:
amount of overlap between
thick and thin fibers
-Optimum overlap produces
greatest amount of tension:
too much or too little reduces
efficiency
-Normal resting sarcomere length:
is 75% to 130% of optimal length

35. ATP as Energy Source

36. Creatine

Molecule capable of storing ATP energy
Creatine + ATP
Creatine phosphate + ADP
ADP + Creatine phosphate
ATP + Creatine

37. Metabolism

• Aerobic metabolism
– 95% of cell demand
– Kreb’s cycle
– 1 pyruvic acid molecule 17 ATP
• Anaerobic metabolism
– Glycolysis 2 pyruvic acids + 2 ATP
– Provides substrates for aerobic metabolism
– As pyruvic acid builds converted to lactic acid

41. Muscle Fatigue

• Muscle Fatigue
– When muscles can no longer perform a required
activity, they are fatigued
• Results of Muscle Fatigue
– Depletion of metabolic reserves
– Damage to sarcolemma and sarcoplasmic reticulum
– Low pH (lactic acid)
– Muscle exhaustion and pain

42. Muscle Hypertrophy

• Muscle growth from
heavy training
• Increases diameter of
muscle fibers
• Increases number of
myofibrils
• Increases mitochondria,
glycogen reserves

43.

Muscle Atrophy
– Lack of muscle
activity
• Reduces muscle
size, tone, and
power

44. Steroid Hormones

• Stimulate muscle growth and hypertrophy
– Growth hormone
– Testosterone
– Thyroid hormones
– Epinephrine

45. Muscle Tonus

• Tightness of a muscle
• Some fibers always contracted

46. Tetany

• Sustained contraction of a muscle
• Result of a rapid succession of nerve
impulses

47. Tetanus

48. Refractory Period

• Brief period of time in which muscle cells
will not respond to a stimulus

49. Refractory
