About this course
Dr. Priscilla Clarkson was well known for her excellent muscle damage research. Dr. Nosaka spent two years in her laboratory as a visiting scholar and published papers with her. He will explain about characteristics of eccentric exercises, including muscle damage and the repeated bout effect (muscle damage attenuation when the same or similar eccentric exercise is repeated). Eccentric exercise training increases muscle strength and muscle mass, improves insulin sensitivity, blood lipid profiles, and functional physical fitness effectively. The course will also cover eccentric exercise effects on health promotion, prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, and the mechanisms underpinning the effects, to provide solid scientific evidence to promote eccentric exercise as medicine.
What you will learn
- To clarify characteristics of eccentric exercises, including a negative aspect (muscle damage)
- Define how that negative aspect can be minimized by using eccentric exercises to promote health, fitness and wellness.
