Is muscle development a change that both males and females go through during puberty?
Yes, muscle development is a change that both males and females go through during puberty.
During puberty, the body goes through a number of changes, including an increase in muscle mass and strength. This is due to the release of hormones such as testosterone and estrogen, which stimulate the growth and development of muscle tissue. In general, males tend to develop more muscle mass than females during puberty, but both sexes experience an increase in muscle development.
In males:
- There is an increase in the size and number of muscle fibers.
- Muscle fibers become more densely packed together.
- Muscles become stronger and more powerful.
In females:
- There is a smaller increase in the size and number of muscle fibers.
- Muscles fibers are less densely packed together.
- Muscles become stronger, but not as powerful as in males.
