Once reserved for athletes, eccentric exercise is becoming increasingly popular in everyday training and physical therapy—especially for people with musculoskeletal conditions like Parkinson’s disease ...
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 ...
The origin and the insertion move further away from each other. An eccentric contraction provides the control of a movement on the downward phase and it works to resist the force of gravity.
Also, leaving the lower extremity unobstructed from points of resistance allows for the integration of triplanar eccentric-based movements at increasing speeds attempting to attenuate the GRFs needed ...
with higher electromyographic values in the lumbar erector spinae and substantially higher ones in the rectus femoris during the push movement. Both concentric and eccentric contractions occurred in ...
