Muscle damage from eccentric exercise: mechanism, mechanical signs, adaptation and clinical applications.
Proske U, Morgan DL. Proske U, et al. J Physiol. 2001 Dec 1;537(Pt 2):333-45. doi: 10.1111/j.1469-7793.2001.00333.x. J Physiol. 2001. PMID: 11731568 Free PMC article. Review.
In eccentric exercise the contracting muscle is forcibly lengthened; in concentric exercise it shortens. While concentric contractions initiate movements, eccentric contractions slow or stop them. A unique feature of eccentric exercise is …
