Daily or athletic examples of a muscle group that could provide concentric , eccentric and isometric contractions are as follows :-
- During the Squat the knee extensors provide concentric contraction on the upward portion, eccentrically provide contraction on downward portion and isometrically contract holding a position at 90 degree.
- During overhead tricep extension, the tricep extensors provide concentric contraction for upward portion, eccentric contraction for downward and isometric contraction for holding a position at 90 degrees.
Provide two daily or athletic examples of a muscle group that could provide concentric, eccentric, and...
Provide an example of an athletic movement of the shoulder, hip, and knee joint (3 total movements). For each example provide the agonist and antagonist muscles. Furthermore, explain what part of the movement the concentric or eccentric phase is. (15 points) Supinated Biceps Curl Example: Agonist: Elbow flexors (Biceps) Antagonist: Elbow extensors (Triceps). The lowering phase of the biceps is the eccentric phase and the upward phase is the concentric phase.
Provide two daily or athletic examples in which all three Newtonian Laws of Motion can be applied.
