  2. Henneman's size principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henneman's_size_principle

    Henneman’s size principle describes relationships between properties of motor neurons and the muscle fibers they innervate and thus control, which together are called motor units. Motor neurons with large cell bodies tend to innervate fast-twitch, high-force, less fatigue-resistant muscle fibers , whereas motor neurons with small cell bodies ...

  3. Progressive overload - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_overload

    Progressive overload is a method of strength training and hypertrophy training that advocates for the gradual increase of the stress placed upon the musculoskeletal and nervous system. [1] The principle of progressive overload suggests that the continual increase in the total workload during training sessions will stimulate muscle growth and ...

  4. Magnetic starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_starter

    A magnetic starter has a contactor and an overload relay, which will open the control voltage to the starter coil if it detects an overload on a motor. [1] [2] The overload relay opens a set of contacts that are wired in series with the supply to the contactor feeding the motor. The characteristics of the heaters can be matched to the motor so ...

  5. Strength training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_training

    Strength training follows the fundamental principle that involves repeatedly overloading a muscle group. This is typically done by contracting the muscles against heavy resistance and then returning to the starting position. This process is repeated for several repetitions until the muscles reach the point of failure. [2]

    Davis's law is used in anatomy and physiology to describe how soft tissue models along imposed demands. It is similar to Wolff's law, which applies to osseous tissue.It is a physiological principle stating that soft tissue heal according to the manner in which they are mechanically stressed.

  9. All-or-none law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-or-none_law

    In physiology, the all-or-none law (sometimes the all-or-none principle or all-or-nothing law) is the principle that if a single nerve fibre is stimulated, it will always give a maximal response and produce an electrical impulse of a single amplitude. If the intensity or duration of the stimulus is increased, the height of the impulse will ...
