Effects of Eccentric Exercise on Cycling Efficiency [PDF]
The aim of this study was to find out whether the efficiency of concentric muscle contraction is impaired by eccentric squatting exercise. The study involved 25 male physical education students in two experiments. In the first experiment 14 subjects undertook cycling exercise at 65% [Formula: see text]max until exhaustion on two occasions.

Eccentric Exercise to Enhance Neuromuscular Control [PDF]
Context: Neuromuscular alterations are a major causal factor of primary and secondary injuries. Though injury prevention programs have experienced some success, rates of injuries have not declined, and after injury, individuals often return to activity with functionality below clinical recommendations ...

Aging, Functional Capacity and Eccentric Exercise Training [PDF]
Aging is a multi-factorial process that ultimately induces a decline in our physiological functioning, causing a decreased health-span, quality of life and independence for older adults. Exercise participation is seen as a way to reduce the impact of aging through maintenance of physiological parameters.

Eccentric Muscle Actions Add Complexity to an Already Inconsistent Resistance Exercise Nomenclature
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 resistance placed upon it.

Concentric and eccentric: Muscle contraction or exercise? [PDF]
This inclusion considers the use and possible misuse of the terms “Concentric and Eccentric” in three possible contexts: first, the origin of terms; second, different approaches; and third, the possible uses. To the best of our knowledge, three articles (Aboodarda, 2011; Bdel-Aziem and Mohammad, 2012 ; Krol and Mynarski, 2012 ) have been published in ...
