Frequently Asked Questions
3. How do my muscles work?
Muscle cells contain long strands of protein lying next to each
other that shorten or contract when you "make a muscle." When you
do strengthening exercises on a regular basis, the bundles of
protein strands inside your muscle cells grow bigger. Small changes
in muscle size can make a big difference in strength.
