physics of body building!

(0 reviews)

Many people might not think it but the meat-heads who body build conduct physics related actions everyday when they go to the gym. The weights they lift are objects that apply a force to the muscles that are targeted in different exercises. Newton's second law, net force= mass x acceleration (F=ma) shows that force is equal to the mass times the acceleration. So the weights that people lift when they work out have a mass that is accelerated by gravity to produce the force overcome by muscle movement. Building muscle mass can be attributed to Newtonian laws of Physics!

They are also performing work to over come gravity. This takes energy which is in joules, and that energy comes from any fat they have!!!!
