1
Q
eccentric is
A
stronger, more microdamage done
-lower stuff slower
2
Q
order of contractions strongest to weakest
A
eccentric
isometric
concentric
3
Q
optimal resting length
A
length of muscles right in the middle of range of motion (maximal force)
4
Q
passive tendons don’t……
A
get shorter than resting length
5
Q
total tension
A
-at shorter than resting, comes from fibers
-longer than resting you get force from fibers and elastic force from passive
6
Q
stretch-shortening cycle
A
an eccentric contraction following immediately by a concentric
-plyometrics
-two traits: elastic recoil of passive and stretch reflex
