Hey guys, I’m a second year medical student and I’m finding the muscle physiology chapter really hard. I’m specially confused in the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to understand it better? I’ll really appreciate any help.
May 10, 2023 at 3:17 pm #2254PriyaParticipantI feel you man! Muscle physiology was a pain for me too. Watching animated videos really helped me vizualize the process. Then do a lotta practice questions, that really helped cement the concepts for me. Hope this helps!

Then relate it to real life examples like twisting a door knob. Relate the sliding of the filaments to the twisting motion. This analogy really clarified things for me.
