All About Muscles. A Great Story About How Muscles Shape Our Lives
How do muscles work? Why do they grow, weaken, recover, and how do they determine our health and endurance?
This book will take you through the centuries - from the first anatomical observations of Galen and the philosophical ideas of Aristotle... to modern studies of biomechanics, sports physiology, and medicine.
You will learn:
- why muscles are not just the "engine of movement," but the key to preventing chronic diseases, improving metabolism, supporting immunity, and longevity;
- how the understanding of muscles has changed over the centuries;
- what scientific discoveries have proven that even 90-year-olds can increase muscle mass as effectively as young people;
- which myths about the body and training have deeply rooted in culture - and why scientific data refute them.
The book "All About Muscles" will help you understand how your body is structured, what processes are hidden behind every movement, and why muscles shape not only our movement but also the quality of our entire life.
