Document Summary
Acb lecture 23 (1) upper extremity 1 (skeletal) Working out is an excellent opportunity to learn and understand upper and lower limb anatomy (and to improve the effectiveness of your own workout!) Most gym machines will provide an illustration of the specific muscle or muscle group being used in a specific motion or exercise. Try practising the names of the muscles you are moving, while thinking about their form and function during the exercises. Leg extender: want to exercise all muscles relatively equally so you don"t end up becoming muscle bound, muscle bound: exercise one muscle group exclusively and they become large to the detriment of the antagonist muscles. In trained individuals the biceps can be quite large: the arrangemt and size of the msucles are related to their function.
