Inspiratory Muscles. The principal muscle of inspiration is the diaphragm, a domed sheet of muscle that separates the thoracic and abdominal cavities. The diaphragm attaches to the lower ribs, as well as to the lumbar vertebrae of the spine.
An isotonic contraction can be concentric, which is where the muscle shortens as the fibres contract or eccentric, where the fibres contract as the muscle lengthens. When a muscle contracts with no resulting movement, it is an isometric contraction. Page: 1  1. 2  2. 3  3.
