isotonic contraction

Lifting an object at a constant speed is an example of isotonic contractions.

Isotonic contractions are those involved in conventional weight lifting.

In an isotonic contraction, tension remains unchanged and the muscle's length changes.

There are two types of isotonic contractions: (1) concentric and (2) eccentric.

A near isotonic contraction is known as Auxotonic contraction.

This hyperbolic form has been found to fit the empirical constant only during isotonic contractions near resting length.

Reciprocally, a muscle that shortens without changing force (isotonic contraction) will show a horizontal line 'work loop'.

This is almost an isotonic contraction because, there is some fluctuation towards the end of the contraction.

This is in contrast to isotonic contractions, in which the contraction strength does not change, though the muscle length and joint angle do.

In isotonic contraction, the tension in the muscle remains constant despite a change in muscle length.

The artificial induction of increased beta waves over the motor cortex by a form of electrical stimulation called Transcranial alternating-current stimulation consistent with its link to isotonic contraction produces a slowing of motor movements.
