Factors that affect muscle performance include the muscle morphology and physiology; neurological, biochemical, and biomechanical influences; and metabolic, cardiovascular, respiratory, cognitive, and emotional function. A healthy and fully functioning muscular system is critical for meeting the physical demands imposed on the body and for allowing individuals to be mobile, recreate, work, and pursue meaningful experiences.
