How Muscles Get Bigger

If only the pump wouldn't go away after a workout

It’s crazy that that was a live person once

[JohnVKaravitis]

What?!?!?!?!?! EDIT: Okay; from Google: "Skeletal muscle fibers can't divide, so muscles can only grow in number, length, or girth through the fusion of myoblasts. This means that when demands on the muscle increase, satellite cells fuse with muscle cells, combining their nuclei ***and creating more muscle.The more nuclei, the bigger and stronger the muscle."*** So, it seems like a definition issue.

From first glance it looked like an orange💀

I can’t stop watching his videos even though each time I’m ready to puke all over the screen and feeling completely lightheaded 😂

I would love to see the cadaver of a body builder

[wowueewow]

Thank you for this!! So increasing protein intake can also aid in bigger muscles?

[JoseFernandez-deon]

You could also tear the muscle by over working it .

Myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic hypertrophy

[roseisalearner]

Bro wtf I've been looking for my chest give it back

[bigguns]

What happens to the fibers after a muscle tear? I've had a few tears from martial arts and weight lifting. Sometimes it will cramp when contracted with noticeable defect in muscle belly. Do you ever get cadavers with noticeable defects in muscle from tears in the pecs or triceps and or biceps? Thanks.

So do steroids increase muscle size because the cells will hold onto the steroids, boosting how much the cells can grow?

[PaulElmont-fdxc]

The other kind of muscle growth is hyperplasia, right? I've read that it doesn't typically happen in humans, but that in some instances it does. (Supposedly happened to Michael Phelps' deltoids.) Is that true?

I would love to see a video about tech neck..I’ve been suffering with it for the last couple months

[MDR]

Barbell > dumbbell any day of the week. Both are good, barbell can be loaded heavier safer and ensures the chest fatigues first before secondary muscles. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Plus, gyms only go up so high with dumbbells. Its a problem 😂😂

[surgrus]

So if the cells in the muscles dont divide and you dont get new ones when they die off, do we have the same muscle cells throughout our whole lives? They just live for as long as we do?

[manuelcossyleon]

Well, through hyperplasia, the muscles can divide, but that would be constantly being exposed to IGF-1 until it triggers that effect. It isn’t hypertrophy, it’s hyperplasia.

[Yupppi]

Again: why does body not recreate muscle? This whole vessel sucks ass when something goes wrong. I mean it tries to compensate so you can survive, but that's their best offer.

that's really cool! how long would it take for the muscle mass or volume to decrease?

[SahilLolayekar]

If i dont not have a science background i want to learn about the muscle and how it works what are the subject i need to go through
