Muscle tone.

Explanation:

Muscle tone is the resting state, or the state of slight contraction, of the muscles that assists in body posture for each movement. If it is in a state of complete relaxation, the muscle takes longer to start contracting and to begin movement. In addition, tone decreases during sleep due to relaxation, but develops again upon awakening. Muscle tone represents the term meaning a continuous slight or partial contraction of a muscle that keeps it healthy and ready to respond.

Thus, it is triggered by nerve stimuli, being an unconscious process that keeps the muscles alert to take action. Without muscle tone our muscles would be at full rest (hypotonus), a condition that hinders their immediate movement. On the other hand, hypertonia consists of an abnormal increase in muscle tone.

you can pull a muscle   or fracture something
