Chapter 6, Problem 4MC
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The extensive exercise of the muscles leads to the condition of the muscle fatigue. The muscle fatigue is a condition which results due to the absence of the muscle contraction. The muscles are unable to contract even in the presence of the muscle contracting stimulus. Due to the extreme exercise and lack of rest, the contracting ability of the muscles gradually weakens.
