As the frequency gets progressively higher, the muscle does not have time to **relax** in between twitches. Each twitch rides piggyback on the previous one and generates **increased** tension.
This phenomenon is known as **tetanus** or **summation**, where the muscle fibers do not fully relax before the next stimulus arrives, leading to a sustained contraction.
