Bodybuilding
use of progressive resistance exercise to control and develop musculature
Would a bodybuilder enjoy wearing a cast for several weeks?
Casts encase a limb and prevent it from moving. Movement of limbs under resistance promote muscle growth. An absence of limb movement will result in decreased muscle size. The goal of bodybuilding is to increase the size of your muscles. Individuals are not happy when they are prevented from pursuing their goals.
What does a bodybuilder need to do on a daily basis? What does a cast limit freedom of? Does the limit on #2 make #1 possible?
