Is it possible to find the modulus of elasticity for muscle tissue? Or for a complete muscle mass according to the same principle as the Young’s factor?!

Under what conditions? One muscle or an entire muscle group? If the former, is the muscle isolated from the body or is the muscle anatomically intact? Active (i.e., contracting) or inactive muscle? Is the muscle(s) being tested in tension, compression, or bending? All of these factors will affect modulus of elasticity.
Thank you for your interest, and I will add to what I said: that gender and age may be factors that should be taken into account as well!
I am trying to find a fixed coefficient for any muscle tissue (possibly any approximate) that can be taken for all cases of muscle work, whether it is fixed or mobile!
