Scientists discover that muscles repair themselves by moving thousands of internal nuclei, a rapid process that is key after ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...

Muscle memory isn't just about muscles; it's your brain and nervous system adapting to repeated movements, making them automatic. Previously trained muscles also retain structural changes, allowing ...

Thirty marks the spot. Starting at this age, we begin to lose approximately three to eight percent of muscle mass per decade. With it, we also lose strength and mobility. Left unaddressed, this loss ...

From Hyrox to Pilates, resistance bands and even yoga, experts explain what actually builds muscles – and why it gets harder ...

Inside every living cell, tiny molecular machines are constantly in motion, shifting shapes, tugging on membranes and ...

Immune cells have a surprising and critical role in controlling movement and bridging neural activity with metabolic demands, concludes a groundbreaking study published in Nature by researchers at the ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) causes dysfunction of muscle cells that help move blood through the circulatory system, a ...

We all want to know if and how we can come back to form after injury, illness, or a long hiatus. Muscles adapt in response to the environment: They grow when we put in the work and shrink when we stop ...
