Muscle spindles cause two things to happen: 1) the muscle being stretched (agonist) contracts to prevent you from going too far too fast in that stretch; and 2) the opposing muscle force (antagonist) is inhibited (prevented from contracting) so that that muscle doesnât pull that stretch further.he muscle spindleâs reflex contraction of its associated muscle simultaneously causes the antagonist muscle group to relax, which is called reciprocal inhibition. The muscle spindle serves as an alert to the muscles; they are located in the muscle belly and sense muscle stretch.
âIt always seems impossible until its done.â. Nelson Mandela quotes (South African Statesman First democratically elected State President of South Africa (1994), 1993 Nobel Prize for Peace, b.1918)
Several hours after his release from prison, Nelson Mandela made his first speech on the balcony of Cape Town's City Hall. As he prepared to speak, he realized he had left his glasses in the prison.So he borrowed a pair from his wife Winnie.elson Mandela, pictured in the early 1960s, before he was sentenced in 1964 to life in prison for sabotage. The government did not release photos of Mandela during his many years in prison, and few people knew what he looked like at the time of his release. Reuters /Landov hide caption.
