Etymology: [ m&-s&l ] (noun.) 14th century. From French muscle, from Latin mūsculus (“little mouse”), because of the mouselike appearance of some muscles, from Ancient Greek μῦς (mus, “mouse”).
Hired strongmen or bodyguards, Strength, An organ composed of muscle tissue, To use force to make progress, especially physical force, A contractile form of tissue which animals use to effect movement, authority or power or force (especially when used in a coercive way); "the senators used their muscle to get the party leader to resign", Muscular strength or development; as, to show one's muscle by lifting a heavy weight, See Mussel, exert strength, force one's way, animal tissue consisting predominantly of contractile cells one of the contractile organs of the body make one's way by force; "He muscled his way into the office, authority or power or force (especially when used in a coercive way); "the senators used their muscle to get the party leader to resign" animal tissue consisting predominantly of contractile cells one of the contractile organs of the body make one's way by force; "He muscled his way into the office, (eye), An organ which, by its contraction, produces motion, The contractile tissue of which muscles are largely made up, animal tissue consisting predominantly of contractile cells, a bully employed as a thug or bodyguard; "the druglord had his muscleman to protect him", muscular strength, make one's way by force; "He muscled his way into the office", contracting body tissue; strength; part of the body that is made up of muscles, An organ that produces movement by contractions There are two major kinds of muscles: voluntary (striated) and involuntary (non-striated) Striated muscles are under voluntary control and include most of the muscles of the body, If you say that someone did not move a muscle, you mean that they stayed absolutely still. He stood without moving a muscle, unable to believe what his eyes saw so plainly. muscle your way into/through etc sth to use your strength to go somewhere. Contractile tissue that produces motion for functions, including body movements, digestion, focusing, circulation, and body warmth. It can be classified as striated, cardiac, and smooth or as phasic and tonic (responding quickly or gradually to stimulation, respectively). Striated muscle, whose fibres appear striped under a microscope, is responsible for voluntary movement. Most of these muscles are phasic. They are attached to the skeleton and move the body by contracting in response to signals from the central nervous system; contraction is achieved by the sliding of thin filaments (of actin) between thick ones (of myosin); stretch receptors in the tissue provide feedback, allowing smooth motion and fine motor control. The branched fibres of cardiac muscle give it a netlike structure; contraction originates in the heart's muscle tissue itself with a signal from the natural pacemaker; vagus and sympathetic nerves control heart rate. Smooth muscle, the muscle of internal organs and blood vessels, is generally involuntary and tonic; its cells can operate either collectively or individually (in response to separate nerve endings) and have different shapes. Disorders of voluntary muscle cause weakening, atrophy, pain, and twitching. Some systemic diseases (e.g., dermatomyositis, polymyositis) can cause muscle inflammation.
