Eccentric and concentric exercise of the triceps surae: an in vivo study of dynamic muscle and tendon biomechanical parameters

Triceps surae eccentric exercise is more effective than concentric exercise for treating Achilles tendinopathy, however the mechanisms underpinning these effects are unclear. This study compared the biomechanical characteristics of eccentric and concentric exercises to identify differences in the te...
