A distance runner tears a tendon and cannot continue to be competitive. The now former runner wants to switch over to weight training and ultimately become competitive in that area. Do they have a chance? Explain your answer based on what you know about the three types of muscle tissue and how they operate.

Valve stenosis (“narrowing”) is a disorder characterised by stiffening of the heart valve flaps. It can occur as a congenital defect, a consequence of prolonged calcium ion imbalance, or an infection. Patients experiencing valve stenosis often have obstructed blood flow that requires surgical intervention.
Think about how the blood flow would be disrupted as it passes each of the heart valves if they were stiff.
What happens to the heart over all?
