Lift weights

 When you lift weights, a series of physiological and biochemical processes occur in your body. Here's a breakdown of what happens: 1. Immediate Effects (During Exercise) Muscle Contraction : Your muscles generate force to lift the weights by recruiting motor units (nerve and muscle fiber combinations). Microtears in Muscle Fibers : The resistance causes microscopic damage (microtears) in your muscle fibers, especially during the eccentric (lowering) phase. Energy Consumption : Your body rapidly burns ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for immediate energy, then relies on stored glycogen and creatine phosphate. Increased Heart Rate & Blood Flow : More oxygen and nutrients are delivered to the working muscles. Hormonal Response : Your body releases testosterone, growth hormone, and cortisol to aid in energy production and muscle adaptation. 2. Short-Term Effects (Post-Workout) Muscle Pump : Increased blood flow causes your muscles to appear larger temporarily. Fatigue ...
