Accentuated-eccentric loading (AEL) takes advantage of the high force producing potential of eccentric muscle contractions, potentially maximising mechanical tension within the muscle. However, evidence is lacking on how AEL squatting may load the in... Read More about An investigation of movement dynamics and muscle activity during traditional and accentuated-eccentric squatting..
