Abstract: Muscle actions are typically divided into 3 categories: concentric, isometric, and eccentric. An active muscle that is shortening and produces positive mechanical work is said to work concentrically; an active muscle that is not changing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2023.38.s1.5732498
Abstract: Previously, we demonstrated that the phytoecdysteroid, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), accelerates the recovery of skeletal muscle function 7 days following eccentric contraction-induced injury. We hypothesized that 20E may influence the inflammatory response during recovery from eccentric muscle… read more here.
