The muscle contraction is initiated when calcium ions binds to troponin. The binding of calcium with protein complex troponin changes the configuraton to  make actin sites active for ATP binding. This binding causes myosin to reach the state of high energy ( excitation), in which myosin head gets detach from the active site.
