et al., 2023). The participants underwent familiarisation with the testing environment, procedures and contraction modes before formal testing. Before and after the isokinetic assessments, the ...

The latter exercises started with submaximal contraction intensity and slow speed movement ... Conclusion: These results highlight the relevance of implementing isokinetic adapted eccentric training ...

Isokinetic machines provide consistent resistance, so they ensure that both the concentric (shortening) and eccentric (lengthening) phases of muscle contraction are equally targeted. “This helps in ...

You lower into the squat, pause at the bottom, then drive upward to stand; these three phases are called eccentric, isometric and concentric muscle contraction, and if your goal is to build muscle ...

Using a machine to control the speed also allows the muscles to contract at a steady rate, causing isokinetic contractions. Isokinetic exercise and isotonic exercise are two techniques that can be ...

The main goal of the present study is to verify whether the electromyographic parameters, especially the conduction velocity (CV), are sensitive to the fatigue instauration process within sets of ...

Typically, an individual will do isokinetic muscle contractions as part of an injury rehabilitation program. A doctor or physical therapist will set the machine to the correct speed, range of ...
