they function why they are important in the human body and so much more so put seat belts on because this is about to blow you away. Before I began to tell you things about muscles, I should properly educate you on muscles. Muscles is a band or bundle of fibrous tissue in the human body that can contract, producing movement in or maintaining the position or parts of the body. Muscles have a very important role in the human body. Fun fact the average human body contain 600 muscles. Now that you know what a muscle is now let me explain to you how the muscle functions! You probably do not consider how you move, speak, and or chew. It is all the functions of muscles they control your heartbeat, breathing and so much more. So next time before you get ready to eat or exercise remember it is your muscles that are allowing you to do so. Now you’re probably thinking that you need your muscles to live and your absolutely correct! Again, muscles are a very important aspect in our daily lives. Muscles help us being active on a day-to-day basis. The more we move our muscles the more strength we have. Fun fact the heart is the strongest muscle in our body and always looking to be stronger! So, my tip to you is to go out and use your muscles and build up your heart. Wow your learning a lot about the muscles but it is way more information I want to share with you! There are three different types of muscles skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. I know! I know you want to know what they mean let’s start with the muscle cardiac! The cardiac muscle or should I say (myocardium) is a muscle that is located only in the heart and has the responsibility to keep the heart pumping blood and making sure the blood is circulating through the body. Next runner up is the smooth muscle. So, listen up while I smoothly break this down to you. Smooth muscles are not located in the heart, but they are in the walls of hallow visceral organs. They have many different functions. They help with the digestion and collecting nutrients. And finally, the skeletal muscle which is personally my favorite. The skeletal muscles work together with bones, and by them working together it gives your body power and strength, but you must understand that skeletal muscles come in different sizes and shapes and they have different roles. Fun fact the biggest muscles are in the calves and in the thighs. There is something else I want to tell you before you go there are different types of muscles contractions which are concentric, isometric, eccentric. The concentric is the force generated by the muscle, the isometric generates forces without changing the length of the muscles, and lastly the eccentric is the external force on the muscle is greater than the muscle that can generate. Well thank you for letting me educate you on muscles!
