 What do your muscles do?

Your muscles have one main job to do in your body. They help you move. They also help give your
body its shape. You control many of the muscles in your body. The muscles you control are called
voluntary muscles. You use voluntary muscles when you wave your arms or turn your head. There are
other muscles in your body that you do not control. They are involuntary muscles. Involuntary muscles
help you breather, and keep your heart beating and your eyes blinking. Your muscles change shape
when they are at work. Muscles contract, or become shorter and thicker, when they are working. Your
bones and muscles work together to help you move. They are connected by tissues called tendons.
When your muscles contracts, the tendon causes the body to move.
