Abstract
There are many processes in which we feel that some energy is consumed (we are working) and crude mechanical models say that we are doing nothing. Typical examples of such a performance is carrying a heavy suitcase via a long horizontal road to a railway station or holding the beer-glass in the stretched arm.
The way how to express in exact mechanical terms the energy input to the muscles will be given.
