- Do you think flexibility exercises work to make tendons or ligaments more flexible? Why would flexibility be so important to musculoskeletal health?arrow_forwardAn isometric exercise is one in which the joint angle does not change during the application of muscle force. For instance, you can join your hands together, pushing down with one hand and pushing up with the other. In each arm, the muscles that provide the force are connected to the bones of the arm by tendons. If you increase the forces but keep the angles the same, the muscles will still contract. Explain how this is possible.arrow_forwardHow do bursae and tendon sheaths improve joint function?arrow_forward
