Physiological and Neural Adaptations to Eccentric Exercise: Mechanisms and Considerations for Training

Eccentric exercise is characterized by initial unfavorable effects such as subcellular muscle damage, pain, reduced fiber excitability, and initial muscle weakness. However, stretch combined with overload, as in eccentric contractions, is an effective stimulus for inducing physiological and neural a...
