Understanding the Golgi Tendon Reflex: How It Protects Your Muscles - Part 14

Discover the Golgi Tendon Reflex and how it safeguards your muscles during intense physical activities. This reflex responds to muscle tension, activating Golgi Tendon Organs that send impulses to the spinal cord. As an automatic protective response, the reflex inhibits further contraction in the contracting muscles while activating opposing muscles. Learn how this reflex prevents muscle tearing and gain insights into its practical application during exercises like the deadlift.
