Answer:

The kind of muscle contraction that occurs when you try to lift a box but it's to heavy and it can't be moved from the floor is called: Isometric Contraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isometric contraction consists of having a muscle activated but to maintain it at a constant length, instead of shorten or lengthen it.
