skeletal muscles

Muscle made up of a set of fasciculi of muscle fibers most of which are fast. Muscles under voluntary control of the central nervous system. It is thanks to the skeletal muscles that the body is maintained, that the joints are stable, that movement is possible and that energy is produced by means of contractions of variable intensity.
