Types of muscle fibers and their functions

During training for fat burning or mass gain, you need to use different types of muscle fibers. About what they are and how to determine the ratio of muscle fibers in the body, read the article.

When playing sports, we constantly use the word “muscles”. We are talking about the fact that they work, hurt, grow or not grow, and so on. As a rule, our knowledge about muscles does not go beyond this. Nevertheless, it is very important to understand that the composition of the muscles can be different, and are prone to various kinds of load.

What is muscle?

A muscle is an organ that consists of fibers and is capable of contracting under the influence of nerve impulses sent by the brain through a brain-muscle connection. Accordingly, the main functions of muscle fiber in the context of sports are the implementation of movements and maintaining the position of the body. Continue reading

How to choose the right weight weights for a girl

In order for the training to be not only effective, but also safe, it is important to choose the right weight. How to choose the weight of dumbbells and other equipment for girls at the beginning of training, read below.

Posture as the foundation

We often hear this word, but what does it mean? Straight back? Lack of scoliosis? In this article, we will consider what components make up posture, how its formation occurs, and, of course, what affects its change.
Posture is a habitual laid-back position of a person’s body, which remains at rest and in motion. This is the definition that we will find in almost every exercise therapy book. But what or who defines this “laid-back position”, and why did it become “familiar”? This is where we should talk about the components that form the posture.

The human body has a rigid frame – the skeleton. The skeleton is both a support for muscles and ligaments, and a protector of vital organs and structures. A building called a “skeleton” is built according to certain laws, according to “floors” -segments, the correct location of which is designed to provide a minimum load on the muscles and ligaments in an upright position. Feet, lower limbs, pelvis, chest, neck and head – these are the very “floors”. If the “floors” are located correctly, one above the other, the body is able to perform movements in the joints with maximum amplitude, rationally and ergonomically move and maintain stability. This alignment is called “skeletal balance.” Continue reading
