Understanding the Muscular System

Front

Increased blood flow

Back

increases blood flow to muscles, enhancing oxygen delivery.

Front

Muscle temperature rise

Back

raises muscle temperature, improving flexibility and efficiency.

Front

Lactic acid production

Back

exercise leads to lactic acid build-up, causing temporary muscle fatigue.

Front

Muscle fatigue

Back

exercise can cause temporary muscle fatigue due to energy depletion.

Front

Increased muscle pliability

Back

makes muscles more pliable, reducing injury risk.

Front

Hypertrophy

Back

exercise leads to muscle hypertrophy, increasing muscle size and strength.

Front

Increased tendon strength

Back

exercise strengthens tendons, improving force transmission.

Front

Improved muscle endurance

Back

exercise enhances muscle endurance, delaying fatigue.

Front

Capillarisation

Back

increases capillary density in muscles, improving blood supply.

Front

Increased myoglobin stores

Back

exercise boosts myoglobin in muscles, enhancing oxygen storage.
