Abstract
A cross-sectional study was carried out to assess the differences in muscle function among healthy medical students using Mosso's ergograph. The onset of fatigue was delayed in males compared to females in both samples 1 and 2 taken with and without workout routines. The work done by males was greater than that of females in both samples 1 and 2, with and without workout routines, respectively. Physical exercise is needed to maintain a healthy weight and BMI. Many factors such as gender, frequency, duration, type of exercise and co-morbidities of the person determine the capacity and work done by that person.
