The maximal number of repetitions that can be completed at various percentages of the one
repetition maximum (1RM)[REPS~% 1RM relationship] is foundational knowledge in …

Since the 1970s, researchers have studied a potential difference in muscle fatigue (acute
strength loss) between maximal eccentric (ECCmax) and concentric (CONmax) resistance …

Many individuals do not participate in resistance exercise, with perceived lack of time being
a key barrier. Minimal dose strategies, which generally reduce weekly exercise volumes to …

Nuzzo, JL. Muscle strength preservation during repeated sets of fatiguing resistance
exercise: A secondary analysis. J Strength Cond Res 38 (6): 1149–1156, 2024—During …

An eccentric muscle action (or contraction) is defined as active muscle lengthening against
resistance, which occurs when the force generated by the muscle is smaller than the …

Introdução: Nas últimas décadas, houve um severo declínio no nível de atividade física
realizado por crianças e adolescentes, sendo este declínio ainda mais evidente durante e …

There is an inverse relationship between the ability to generate force during concentric
muscle movements and the velocity of contraction. However, this relationship is not the …

Background Conflicting results have been reported regarding the effects of resistance
exercise training with eccentric (lengthening muscle) versus concentric (shortening muscle) …
