This NEUROMUS web page has a wealth of information on the topic of muscle physiology. It will be an excellent source of reading material.

Great tutorials on the sarcomere, length/tension & force/velocity relationships, and muscle fiber.

A page of links related to skeletal muscle structure, function and injury.

Great muscle structure page here, quite detailed.

Detailed outline of muscle structure & contraction mechanics is here.

Very detailed page of information on muscle structure.

More muscle structure is here - this page also details the relationship between the T-tubule and Sarcoplasmic Reticulum in more detail (Items 1b and 3).

If not available in the bookstore, you can buy the Biomechanical Basis of Human Movement text here or here and the Manual of Structural Kinesiology can be purchased here.
If you need to obtain access to FFH 122 during normal business hours (8-5, M-F) see Kathy Lloyd in the SPME off ice in Firestone Fieldhouse Room 205. Kathy has a key to let you into the lab. All plastic skeletal materials and the full skeleton are available for you to use during this time. I will let you know about after hours access to FFH 122 when (if?) it is available.
If you are interested in purchasing the CDROM I will use in class. I found it at these locations, click the links to go to the sites. If you want to find it on your own, the title is Interactive Atlas of Human Anatomy by Frank H. Netter, MD. Published by Coba-Geigy Corporation and its ISBN is 0-914168-21-5. The second edition is now being published (I use the first edition), but it has not changed. You may find the CD-ROM here:
 Amazon.Com  MedTech  Ramex
This page has pretty good information on the mechanisms underlying stretching/flexibility training.
