Background Resistance training is an integral component of physical preparation for
athletes. A growing body of evidence indicates that eccentric strength training methods …

Eccentric contractions, characterized by the lengthening of the muscle-tendon complex,
present several unique features compared with other types of contractions, which may lead …

• Skeletal muscle adapts to exercise-induced muscle damage in such a way that it is
protected from subsequent damaging stimuli. This phenomenon is widely known as the …

Drawing on the disciplines of neurophysiology and physics, Neuromechanics of Human
Movement, Fourth Edition, explores how the nervous system controls the actions of muscles …

The aim of this systematic review was to determine if eccentric exercise is superior to
concentric exercise in stimulating gains in muscle strength and mass. Meta-analyses were …

It is generally accepted that neural factors play an important role in muscle strength gains.
This article reviews the neural adaptations in strength, with the goal of laying the foundations …

Objectives The purpose of this meta-analysis was to examine the effect of flywheel (FW)
resistance training with Eccentric Overload (FW-EOT) on muscle size and functional …

If exercises are performed to increase muscle strength on one side of the body, voluntary
strength can increase on the contralateral side. This effect, termed the contralateral strength …

Unfamiliar, predominantly eccentric exercise, frequently results in muscle damage. A
repeated bout of similar eccentric exercise results in less damage and is referred to as the …
