Abstrakt: The article reports on research which investigated the strength and electromyographic (EMG) responses in exercised and nonexercised limbs after concentric (CON) vs. eccentric (ECC) exercise of the forearm flexors. Researchers evaluated 25 male subjects. They found that the CON exercise and ECC exercise interventions caused similar strength losses for the exercised arm and that there was also a strength loss in the contralateral nonexercised arm that was likely because of neural factors.
