Speaking of sliding filament theory, this is one of the reasons why you should do static stretches before working out.

There's an optimal length at which there's a good amount of overlap between actin and myosin fibers. Stretching pulls the Z-lines apart, disrupting this optimal distance and reducing voluntary strength.

I just thought of that a sec, figured it was pertinent...

One more year so I'll be picking a topic soon. I'm leaning towards a diseased population...Native Americans and diabetes. I grew up on a reservation with a typical high prevalence of diabetes.

diebetes is a diseas of lipid and carbohydrate insensitivity. in native american have what is called a thrifty gene, basically stores most nutrients as fat but this leads to obese population in the carb based society we live in. this with a fast absorption rate and insulin spikes is causing a lot of problems
