- Summary:
- "The widespread nature of muscle tissue in the body is introduced as this program looks at the complex movements involved in the exercise of rowing. The nature of muscle itself is examined, from its gross structure to its detailed microstructure, where chemical energy is harnessed to produce movement. As muscle forms the basis for much of a person's body shape, we explore the ways in which this shape can be changed by the activities we perform."
