Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Myth No pain, no gain.
Fact Pain is not a sign of a good workout. Rather, pain
is a signal from your body that you are working too hard
or you have an injury. Continuing to exercise through
the pain could lead to a more serious injury.
Where do you think most teens get their information
about muscles? How factual do you think their
information is?

The Muscles in Your Body
• Muscles move your eyes as you read.
• Muscles in your chest allow you to breathe.
• Muscles in your heart pump your blood.
• Every time your body moves, muscles are at work.

Types of Muscle
Your body has three types of muscle tissue that
perform different functions.
• Smooth muscle - is involuntary muscle that found
in many internal organs. causes movements
within your body.
• Cardiac muscle - is involuntary muscle that is
found only in the heart.
• Skeletal muscles – is voluntary muscle tissue that
is attached to bones you control to do activities,
such as walk or play a musical instrument.

Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Voluntary vs Involuntary Muscles
• Voluntary muscle is a muscle that a person can
control.
• Involuntary muscle is a muscle that functions without
a person’s control.

Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
How Muscles Work
• All muscles do work by contracting, or becoming
shorter and thicker.
• Many skeletal muscles work in pairs.
• One muscle in the pair contracts to move the
bone in one direction.
• Then, the other muscle in the pair contracts to
move the bone back.

Tendons
• A thick strand of tissue called a tendon attaches a
muscle to a bone.
Slide 9 of 16
Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Muscle Tone
• Even when a skeletal muscle is not contracting to
cause movement, a few of its individual muscle
fibers are still contracting.
• Contractions tense and firm the muscle.
• This slight tension is called muscle tone.
• Muscles that cannot contract due to injury, or are not
used often, will weaken and shrink, a condition
known as atrophy.

Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Keeping Healthy
• You can maintain a healthy muscular system by
regularly participating in different types of exercise.
• To help prevent injuries, exercise sessions should
include a warm-up and cool-down period.
Slide 14 of 16
Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Working Your Muscles
• Some types of exercise increase a muscle’s
endurance—how long it can contract without tiring.
• Other exercises make individual fibers grow, which
causes the muscles to thicken and increase in
strength.
• Anabolic steroids - are artificial forms of the male
hormone testosterone.

Avoiding Muscle Injuries
• Strains - A muscle strain, or a pulled muscle, is a
painful injury that may happen when muscles are
overworked or stretched too much or too quickly.
• Tendonitis - Overuse of tendons may lead to painful
swelling and irritation called tendonitis.
• Prevent injuries
• regular strengthening and stretching exercises
• vary your exercise routine
• warm up and cool down
• stop exercising if you feel a sharp or sudden pain

Section 11.2 Your Muscular System
Preventing Muscle Cramps
• A muscle cramp is a strong, uncontrolled muscle
contraction.
• To relieve a cramp, try massaging the affected area
and exercising the limb gently.
• Stretching and drinking plenty of water before and
during exercise can help you avoid muscle cramps.
