Abstract

We study the muscular force during contraction via linear and quadratic approximations of the resistance force. Using theoretical - mechanics arguments, we shall determine the relevant parameters featuring in the equation of motion. This is very important for the determination of the type of training practice which will transform the muscle for various types of dealing with the medium resistance.
