Answer
One key aspect of Hill's study in muscles was the elucidation of heat production. He found that muscle fibers produce heat when they contract, and that this heat production is proportional to the force of contraction. He also found that the rate of heat production is higher when the muscle is working at a higher intensity. This work provided important insights into the mechanisms of muscle contraction and energy metabolism.
