Abstract:Purpose
The effect of eccentric exercise-induce muscle damage (EIMD) on elbow flexors is commonly analyzed after exercises performed at isokinetic dynamometers. However, it is possible that the magnitude of eccentric EIMD be different between exercises performed at free weights. Herein we compared the effect of eccentric exercise performed either with free weight (FW) or isokinetic dynamometer (ID) on the magnitude of elbow flexors EIMD in well-trained men.
Methods
Seventeen men were randomly assigned to FW … Show more
