This study investigated biceps brachii distal myotendinous junction (MTJ) displacement
during maximal eccentric elbow flexor contractions to test the hypothesis that muscle length …

The repeated bout effect (RBE) is a phenomenon characterized by less delayed onset
muscle soreness (DOMS) and torque deficit after the second of 2 separate eccentric …

The aim of this study was to compare the possible changes in muscle activation level
between a first and second bout of damaging eccentric exercise performed at 2 weeks …

This study examined whether performing repeated bouts of eccentric exercise 2 and 4 days
after an initial damaging bout would exacerbate muscle damage. One arm performed 3 sets …

The repeated bout effect refers to the protective effect provided by a single bout of eccentric
exercise against muscle damage from a similar subsequent bout. The aim of this study was …

Unaccustomed eccentric (ECC) exercise induces muscle fatigue as well as damage and
initiates a protective response to minimize impairments from a subsequent bout (ie, repeated …

Abstract Skurvydas, A, Brazaitis, M, and Kamandulis, S. Repeated bout effect is not
correlated with intraindividual variability during muscle-damaging exercise. J Strength Cond …

The current consensus in exercise physiology is that the repeated bout effect always
appears after few eccentric exercise sessions. This is the first attempt to challenge this tenet …

Purpose This study compared maximal eccentric (ECC) and concentric (CON) contractions
of the elbow flexors for changes in transverse relaxation time (T2) and indirect markers of …
