U.S., Feb. 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07431879) titled 'Acute Muscle Damage After Eccentric Quasi-Isometric Exercise of the Elbow Flexors' on Feb. 10.
Brief Summary: This study compared the acute muscle damage responses of the elbow flexor muscles following two types of resistance exercise: eccentric quasi-isometric (EQI) exercise and traditional eccentric (ECC) exercise. Thirty healthy young men were randomly assigned to perform either EQI or ECC using a dumbbell elbow flexion exercise. Both groups exercised with the same relative external load and performed the exercise to voluntary fatigue.
Muscle function, muscle soreness, and blood markers related to muscle damage were assessed bef...
