| | Muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Voluntary muscle contraction is used to move the body and can be finely controlled, such as movements of the finger or gross movements like the quadriceps muscle of the thigh. | | | Skeletal muscle or "voluntary muscle" is anchored by tendons to bone and is used to affect skeletal movement such as locomotion. | | | Deep muscles, superficial muscles, muscles of the face and internal muscles all correspond with dedicated regions in the brain. |

| | This long muscle arises from a narrow point on the pelvis bone, passes between the masses of the hamstring and quadriceps groups and ends, at its wide apex, on the back of the femur. | | | The quadriceps muscles consist of: the rectus femoris, the vastus lateralis, the vastus intermedius, and the vastus medialis. | | | The muscle arises from the sacrum, passes through the sacrosciate foramen, and inserts as a round tendon into the upper edge of the great trochanter of the femur (upper edge of the thigh bone). |

| | It is speculated that injuries are often caused by muscle fatigue, tight hamstrings, mineral imbalances, improper form, faulty posture, and an imbalance in strength between the hamstrings and quadriceps (muscle group in the front of the thigh). | | | It is true that of all the muscles in the body, the hamstring muscle group has nearly the highest incidence of strains. | | | The hamstring muscle group is comprised of three muscles, (Biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus) which work together to provide a variety of movements. |

| | The cross-sectional area of the quadriceps muscles was measured at 2 levels: 25% and 75% of the femur's length measured from the knee joint. | | | Electromyographic activity was detected in all motions examined, suggesting that the biceps muscle acts as a flexor and an abductor of the shoulder. | | | The notion that a particular resistance exercise will cause the entire muscle belly to grow in a uniform manner is at odds with the fact that muscles and muscle fibers are themselves heterogeneous. |
