What are some effects of muscle fatigue?
A
Twitching, weak grip
B
booste in energy
C
Becoming sleepy
D
Hunger
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Symptoms. When you experience fatigue, the force behind the muscles’ movements decrease, causing you to feel weaker, often this weakness is the initial sign. Other symptoms associated with muscle fatigue include: soreness; localized pain; shortness of breath; muscle twitching; trembling; a weak grip; muscle cramps.

Detailed explanation-2: -Muscle fatigue caused by repeated muscle contractions reduced neuromuscular coordination and it would be more difficult to control the passing angle and power output. Muscle strength is one of the factors that affect the strength of the grip.

Detailed explanation-3: -Muscle weakness is commonly due to lack of exercise, ageing, muscle injury or pregnancy. It can also occur with long-term conditions such as diabetes or heart disease. There are many other possible causes, which include stroke, multiple sclerosis, depression, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome (ME).

Detailed explanation-4: -Muscle fatigue is defined as a decrease in maximal force or power production in response to contractile activity. It can originate at different levels of the motor pathway and is usually divided into central and peripheral components. Peripheral fatigue is produced by changes at or distal to the neuromuscular junction.
