Definitions:

Isometric Contractions

Isometric contractions involve the muscle generating tension without changing its length, often used in strength training exercises.

Motor Units

A single motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates, functioning as the basic functional unit in muscle contraction.

Muscle Twitches

Involuntary, fine movements of a small area of muscle, often caused by stress, fatigue, or mineral imbalances.

All-Or-None Principle

When a stimulus is applied to a cell, an action potential is either produced or not. In muscle cells, the cell either contracts to the maximum extent possible (for a given condition) or does not contract.
