Generally, when comparing programs of eccentric-only and concentric-only strength training workouts, the subjects perform either (1) maximal isokinetic reps, which involve similar levels of motor unit recruitment but greater forces in the eccentric condition, or (2) the same relative percentage of maximum (eccentric or concentric) force with conventional weights, which again involves similar levels of motor unit recruitment but greater forces in the eccentric condition.
