Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Antiperistalsis

👉 Antiperistalsis is a type of contraction in which the muscle contractions are performed in small steps, rather than in continuous waves. This means that the muscle contracts at a slower rate and produces less force per unit time compared to normal contraction. Antiperistalsis can occur during relaxation periods or when muscles are in rest or are not actively contracting.
