What is Eccentric Training with Eccentron?
The Eccentron is a specialized machine designed to target the eccentric phase of muscle movement—the phase where muscles lengthen under tension, which is crucial for building strength and improving muscle control. Unlike traditional strength training, which emphasizes concentric (shortening) contractions, Eccentron’s eccentric training focuses on the controlled lengthening of muscles, making it ideal for building muscle power, endurance, and resilience.
​
This advanced form of training is particularly effective for:​
Athletic performance enhancement
Injury prevention and recovery
Rehabilitation from surgeries
Chronic conditions like tendinopathy
Whether you’re an athlete looking for that competitive edge or someone recovering from injury, the Eccentron can help you achieve your goals faster and more effectively.
Why Eccentric Training is Crucial for Athletes
For athletes, eccentric muscle contractions play a major role in power movements like sprinting, jumping, and cutting. Training with the Eccentron offers several unique advantages that can help boost performance:
Increased Muscle Strength: Eccentric contractions generate more force than concentric ones, allowing athletes to build superior muscle strength in less time.
Improved Muscle Endurance: Eccentron training enhances muscle control and endurance, helping athletes maintain peak performance during longer games or races.
Injury Prevention: By focusing on controlled muscle lengthening, athletes can strengthen connective tissues and reduce the risk of strains, tears, and other injuries.
Accelerated Recovery: Eccentric training can also help athletes recover more quickly from injuries by strengthening weakened muscles and reducing rehabilitation time.
