Which muscle is located in the upper extremities?
Deltoid
Other options include fibularis longus, Gluteus Maximus, and Gastrocnemius
What accounts for the difference in the percent change in grip strength for the two time intervals?
Rapid use of HIP for muscle contraction and ATP replenishment leads to muscle fatigue
Understanding muscle contraction and energy depletion is crucial for explaining grip strength changes.
