C10 and E10 – 10 sessions with progressive loads from 80% to maximum strength with emphasis on concentric and eccentric contraction, respectively. Results: Isotonic strength increased by 10% in ...

Isotonic eccentric contraction – this involves the muscle lengthening whilst it is under tension. The origin and the insertion move further away from each other. An eccentric contraction ...

The purpose of the study was to find out the effects of three different types of isotonic training programme, viz. eccentric, concentric and combination of both on strength of selected body segments, ...

“Eccentric movement refers to the phase of ... When deciding between isometric and isotonic exercises (dynamic exercises), ...

This movement can be a concentric or eccentric muscular contraction. Isotonic concentric contraction – this involves the muscle shortening. The origin and insertion of the muscle move closer ...

It is hard to decrease pain in-season with current treatments; eccentric exercises in-season have resulted in worsening of symptoms [Fredberg, 2008; Visnes, 2007]. Other exercise programs (isometric ...

The main types of muscle actions are isometric, isotonic, concentric and eccentric. An isometric exercise is something like a plank or a wall sit, where the length of the muscle doesn't change.
