The aim of this study was to examine the metabolic demand and extent of muscle damage of
eccentric cycling targeting knee flexor (FLEX) and knee extensor (EXT) muscles. Methods …

Exercises involving eccentric actions, mainly in untrained subjects, induce muscular
damage to a higher extent than concentric actions. This damage arises from muscle injury …

Eccentric muscle actions are known to induce delayed‐onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and
muscle weakness (reduced static strength and dynamic peak power output) that may persist …

We sought to determine if the velocity of an acute bout of eccentric contractions influenced
the duration and severity of several common indirect markers of muscle damage. Subjects …

and Zbinden-Foncea, H. Effects of eccentric cycling performed at long vs. short muscle …

This study aims to review the main aspects that induce muscle damage, and to discuss the
adaptations of this phenomenon, applications and limitations of this study area. Damage …

Abstract Mike, JN, Cole, N, Herrera, C, VanDusseldorp, T, Kravitz, L, and Kerksick, CM. The
effects of eccentric contraction duration on muscle strength, power production, vertical jump …

Purpose Low-intensity eccentric contractions with a load corresponding to 10% of maximal
voluntary isometric contraction strength (10% EC) attenuate muscle damage in a …

Purpose This study assessed markers of muscle damage and training adaptations to
eccentric-overload flywheel resistance exercise (RE) in men and women. Methods Dynamic …

Background: Eccentric exercise is defined as a type of exercise in which the muscle
produces power by extending. In contrast to isometric and concentric exercises, eccentric …
