Muscle contraction takes energy. When muscle runs out of energy, muscle stops contracting.
Muscles dont all contract at the exact same time. When some bits of muscle fail because no energy, others still have some energy, so they alternate failing and recovering and contracting again.

You feel this when you do a long plank exercise.
