An eccentric muscle contraction is immediately followed by a powerful concentric contraction

The first contraction would be the eccentric contraction.

The goal is to enhance the force development of a concentric contraction that immediately follows a rapid eccentric contraction.

Negatives – The “negative” is also known as the eccentric contraction.

This is a classic example of combined eccentric and concentric contraction.

An eccentric contraction occurs when the muscle is being lengthened.

This type of muscle work is named “eccentric contraction”.

The Reformer is a set-up for eccentric contraction.

Eccentric contraction occurs when the muscle lengthens.

Reformer is a setting for the eccentric contraction.

The reformer is a set-up for eccentric contraction.

This type of contraction is termed ‘eccentric contraction’.

This type of contraction is termed ‘eccentric contraction’.

This produces a significant fixation that enhances effects of excentric contraction of the deep neck muscles.

The goal is to enhance the force development of a concentric contraction that immediately follows a rapid eccentric contraction.
