AB Muscle  performance  refers  to  the  capacity  of  a  muscle  to  do  work  (force  ×  distance).11  Despite  the  simplicity  of  the  definition,  muscle  performance  is  a  complex  component  of  functional  movement  and  is  influenced  by  all  of  the  body  systems.  Factors  that  affect  muscle  performance  include  the  morphological  qualities  of  muscle;  neurological,  biochemical,  and  biomechanical  influences;  and  metabolic,  cardiovascular,  respiratory,  cognitive,  and  emotional  function.  For  a  person  to  anticipate,  respond  to,  and  control  the  forces  applied  to  the  body  and  carry  out  the  physical  demands  of  everyday  life  in  a  safe  and  efficient  manner,  the  body's  muscles  must  be  able  to  produce,  sustain,  and  regulate  muscle  tension  to  meet  these  demands.
