　　　I believe everyone has heard the word "dead muscles". Many friends also have a certain understanding of it.

　　　Dead muscles: It describes the exercised muscles with insufficient mobility, stiffness, etc., and dead muscles are muscles with weak stretching and contracting ability and low work efficiency.

　　"Dead muscles" are relative to sports events, such as the muscle shape of weightlifters and the way they exert force. If they are running, they are called dead muscles.

　　The formation of dead muscles:

　　Muscles are composed of a lot of muscle fibers. On the one hand, the strength depends on the stretching ability of the muscle fibers, and on the other hand, it depends on the unit muscle volume. How many muscle fibers can fully and normally work?

　　After exercise, the muscles contract tightly together and accumulate a lot of lactic acid. In this state, the muscles should be relaxed through massage and stretching exercise and restored to normal length! This will not accumulate in a long time, causing the muscles to stretch and shrink and accumulate together.

　　The muscles with poor stretching and stretching ability are commonly known as dead muscles! Good muscles are very elastic when relaxed.
