Document Summary

Bundles of muscle fibers which contain myofibrils. Pc system (store more phosphagen and glycogen) Fascia (connective tissue) sheath that wraps layers of skeletal. When over train or get injured the fascia can get stuck (foam roll) muscles. Provides sliding and gliding" environment for muscles. Entire body is wrapped in this (muscles, organs, transmits force) Body is all connected with this (foot to head) around a wrap) Epimysium (outer) wraps around entire muscle (all fiber bundles) (foil. Perimysium (middle) tissue surrounding individual bundles of muscle fibers. Endomysium) tissue between individual fibers (food inside the wrap) Tendons attach muscle to the bone form of fascia that is not as elastic. Intramuscular connective tissue emerges with dense connective tissue at each end of the muscle to attach it to bone (tortilla of wrap) Smaller tendon can withstand tension developed by larger muscles. Arteries/veins parallel to muscle fibers (delivery system) Branches/networks in the endomysium to supply blood and remove waste.
