Submaximal eccentric resistance training increases serial sarcomere number and improves dynamic muscle performance in old rats
Abstract The age‐related loss of muscle mass is partly accounted for by the loss of sarcomeres in series, contributing to declines in muscle mechanical performance. Resistance training biased to eccentric contractions increases serial sarcomere number (SSN) in young muscle, however, maximal eccentri...
