Connective Adaptive Resistance Exercise (CARE) Machines for Accentuated Eccentric and Eccentric-Only Exercise: Introduction to an Emerging Concept
Eccentric resistance exercise emphasizes active muscle lengthening against resistance. In the past 15 years, researchers and practitioners have...
-
Eccentric Muscle Actions Add Complexity to an Already Inconsistent Resistance Exercise Nomenclature
An eccentric muscle action (or contraction) is defined as active muscle lengthening against resistance, which occurs when the force generated by the...
-
The role of ZBP1 in eccentric exercise-induced skeletal muscle necroptosis
This study aimed to explore the occurrence of necroptosis in skeletal muscle after eccentric exercise and investigate the role and possible...
-
Biceps brachii elastography in well-trained men post eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage
PurposeRecent advancements in elastography techniques, specifically supersonic shearwave elastography (SWE), have enabled non-invasive assessment of...
-
Effect of Eccentric Exercise on Metabolic Health in Diabetes and Obesity
There is a growing body of evidence showing the importance of physical activity against civilization-induced metabolic diseases, including type 2...
-
Eccentric exercise 24 h prior to hypobaric decompression increases decompression strain
PurposeAnimal studies have shown that recent musculoskeletal injuries increase the risk of decompression sickness (DCS). However, to date no similar...
-
Acute and chronic cardiovascular responses to concentric and eccentric exercise in older adults with knee osteoarthritis
PurposeMuscle contraction type in resistance exercise training may confer benefits besides strength in individuals with osteoarthritis and...
-
The acute and repeated bout effects of multi-joint eccentric exercise on physical function and balance in older adults
PurposeEccentric muscle actions generate high levels of force at a low metabolic cost, making them a suitable training modality to combat age-related...

Temporal tracking of cysteine 34 oxidation of plasma albumin as a biomarker of muscle damage following a bout of eccentric exercise
PurposeExercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) results in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), but little is known about the temporal...

Skeletal effects of eccentric strengthening exercise: a scoping review
BackgroundConventional progressive concentric strengthening exercise (CSE) to improve bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) may...
-
Eccentric exercise-induced muscle weakness amplifies the history dependence of force
IntroductionFollowing active lengthening or shortening contractions, isometric steady-state torque is increased (residual force enhancement; rFE) or...

Clinical effectiveness of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy as an adjunct treatment to eccentric exercise for Achilles tendinopathy: a randomised controlled trial
BackgroundThe Achilles tendon is the largest and strongest tendon in the human body. Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is a common clinical problem with...

The Role of Autophagy Regulator HMGB1 in Skeletal Muscle Autophagy After Eccentric Exercise
High mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) is an evolutionarily ancient protein, which, as an important non-histone chromosome-binding protein in...
-
Combined effects of green tea supplementation and eccentric exercise on nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 activity
PurposeThis study investigated whether combining eccentric exercise and green tea supplementation synergistically increased nuclear factor erythroid...

Eccentric exercise-induced delayed onset trunk muscle soreness alters high-density surface EMG-torque relationships and lumbar kinematics
We aimed to assess high-density surface electromyography (HDsEMG)-torque relationships in the presence of delayed onset trunk muscle soreness (DOMS)...

Characterising the Cytokine and Circulating Immune Cell Response After a Single Bout of Eccentric Stepping Exercise in Healthy Untrained Males
PurposeThe mechanisms that underpin exercise-induced muscle damage and recovery are believed to be mediated, in part, by immune cells recruited to...
-
Functional progressive resistance exercise versus eccentric muscle control in children with hemiplegia: a randomized controlled trial
BackgroundHistorically, strength exercise in children with CP is not recommended, because it may develop spasticity, which results in difficulty with...
-
The effects of eccentric hamstring exercise training in young female handball players
PurposeThe multidimensional role of hamstring muscle group strength in athletic performance and injury prevention is well documented, and nordic...

Nestin and osteocrin mRNA increases in human semitendinosus myotendinous junction 7 days after a single bout of eccentric exercise
The myotendinous junction (MTJ), a specialized interface for force transmission between muscle and tendon, has a unique transcriptional activity and...
-
Contractile properties are less affected at long than short muscle length after eccentric exercise
PurposeThe aim of the present study was to investigate whether the electrically evoked muscle responses are differently affected over time by the...
