Alterations in whole-body insulin sensitivity resulting from repeated eccentric exercise of a single muscle group: a pilot investigation [PDF]
, 2015 Unaccustomed eccentric exercise using large muscle groups elicits soreness, decrements in physical function and impairs markers of whole-body insulin sensitivity; although these effects are attenuated with a repeated exposure.

Changes in the angle-force curve of human elbow flexors following eccentric and isometric exercise. [PDF]
, 2004 The aim of this study was to explore and compare the magnitude and time-course of the shift in the angle-force curves obtained from maximal voluntary contractions of the elbow flexors, both before and 4 consecutive days after eccentric and isometric ...

A New Paradigm for Muscle Contraction
Frontiers in Physiology, 2015 For the past 60 years, muscle contraction had been thought to be governed exclusively by the contractile filaments, actin and myosin. This thinking explained most observations for concentric and isometric, but not for eccentric muscle contractions.

An illusion of eccentricity [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1983 The illusion investigated here is that two concentric arcs, drawn in different (though possibly overlapping) circular sectors and having the same angular extent, appear to be eccentric. Three possible explanations of the illusion are tested. The first hypothesis is that concentricity judgments are made by elongating the arcs to see if they intersect ...

Effect of Plyometric Training on Speed and Change of Direction Ability in Elite Field Hockey Players
Sports, 2018 This study investigated the effects of two plyometric training protocols on sprint and change of direction (COD) performance in elite hockey players. A parallel-group randomized controlled trial design was used and seventeen elite male and female field ...

Influence of 4 weeks of downhill running on calcium sensitivity of rat single muscle fibers
Physiological Reports, 2022 Improved Ca2+ sensitivity has been suggested as a mechanism behind enhancements in muscle mechanical function following eccentric training. However, little is known regarding the effects of eccentric training on single muscle fiber Ca2+ sensitivity ...

The polishing process of advanced ceramic balls using a novel eccentric lapping machine [PDF]
, 2005 The finishing process of advanced ceramic balls can be divided into two steps. The first step is lapping in which most of the stock from the ball is removed at a higher material removal rate.
