An isotonic contraction is where the muscle changes length but what's the difference between concentric and eccentric?
Concentric - muslce shortens to produce tension Eccentric - muscle lengthens to produce tension
28 of 29
What is an isometric contraction?
the muscle contracts but doesn't change length and no movement is created
