, 5. Eccentric


Eccentric - ✔✔The lengthening of the muscle during contraction.


Concentric - ✔✔The shortening of the muscle during contraction.


Isokinetic - ✔✔Tension is developed by the muscle contracting at a constant speed

maximally over the full Range of Motion.


Isotonic - ✔✔The muscle contraction with varying tension while lifting a constant load

(movement occurs). Predominant with free weights.


Isometric - ✔✔Static contraction where tension is developed, but there is no change in

the length of the muscle (no movement). The external resistance is greater than the

internal force a muscle can generate.


Types of Resistance - ✔✔1. Constant Resistance


2. Variable Resistance


Constant Resistance - ✔✔The weight or resistance remains constant throughout the

Range of Motion. Also known as Isotonic training. Disadvantage: The resistance is the

same for both the weak and strong joint angles in the Range of Motion.


Variable Resistance - ✔✔The weight or resistance varies throughout the Range of

Motion. Also known as Isokinetic training. Advantage: It accommodates the resistance

for both the weak and strong joint angles in the Range of Motion.
