These results highlight the high-force, low-cost nature of multi-joint eccentric actions and extend the application of eccentric cycling to the upper body. ECarm may be useful for exercising elbow, trunk, and shoulder musculature while minimizing metabolic and cardiorespiratory strain and perceived exertion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
