Background Several studies have utilised isometric, eccentric and downhill walking pre-
conditioning as a strategy for alleviating the signs and symptoms of exercise-induced …

We investigated localization of damage within the knee extensors (KEs) and plantar flexors
(PFs) induced by downhill running (DR) by using transverse relaxation time (T2)-weighted …

Objective To investigate the evidence and provide clinical recommendations for low intensity
exercises (LIE) and blood flow restriction (BFR) without exercise on reducing the effects of …

Purpose Eccentric muscle actions generate high levels of force at a low metabolic cost,
making them a suitable training modality to combat age-related neuromuscular decline. The …

Background The purpose of this study was to compare knee biomechanics of the replaced
limb to the non-replaced limb of total knee replacement (TKR) patients and healthy controls …

Exercise is a well-established tool for cardiovascular risk reduction. Particularly eccentric
exercise, which essentially means walking downwards could favour more people becoming …

Transient symptoms of muscle damage emanating from unaccustomed eccentric exercise
can adversely affect muscle function and potentially increase the risk of falling for several …

Introduction Annually, approximately 250,000 people climb Mount Fuji in Japan.
Nonetheless, only few studies have examined the prevalence of falls and related factors on …

Introduction Alterations in cell-free DNA concentration (cfDNA) over time have been studied
in diseased or injured patients or analyzed in athletes during exhaustive exercise. However …

Eccentric contraction‐induced quadriceps strains, particularly in the rectus femoris (RF),
frequently occur in sports. By using MRI‐based transverse relaxation time (T2) as an index …
