Skeletal muscle remodeling in response to eccentric vs. concentric loading: morphological, molecular, and metabolic adaptations
MV Franchi, ND Reeves, MV Narici - Frontiers in physiology, 2017 - frontiersin.org
Skeletal muscle contracts either by shortening or lengthening (concentrically or
eccentrically, respectively); however, the two contractions substantially differ from one …

Muscle thickness correlates to muscle cross‐sectional area in the assessment of strength training‐induced hypertrophy
MV Franchi, S Longo, J Mallinson… - … journal of medicine …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Muscle thickness (MT) measured by ultrasound has been used to estimate cross‐sectional
area (measured by CT and MRI) at a single time point. We tested whether MT could be used …
