Steroids and the Muscles
How the muscles work and how steroids effect them
Muscles are made up of sarcomeres which are made up of actin and myosin. Actin and myosin attach together to contract the muscle. And when the muscles detract the actin and myosin detach. That is a little bit about how the muscles work. Now more on to the steroids side. The Annabolic steroids are the type of steroids that effect the muscles in a way that they help strengthen them.
