greater than the generated tension, no movement takes place
Eccentric Correct Answer Referred to by the increase in the
length of the muscle during isotonic contraction; the "negative"
part of the contraction
Concentric Correct Answer Referred to by the decrease in the
length of the muscle during isotonic contraction; the "positive" part
of the contraction
