Answer:

Isotonic eccentric

Explanation:

First of all, it should be noted that the term contraction has the meaning of joining or shortening. In the field of bodybuilding and workouts with loads, we can define muscle contraction as what happens whenever muscle fibers generate a tension in themselves.

This tension situation occurs in several situations, including when the muscle is shortened, elongated, moving, maintaining the same length or static.

There are different types of muscle contraction, among them we can highlight isotonic contraction, which is divided in turn into concentric and eccentric, isometric, auxotonic and isokinetic contraction.

 Isotonic contraction is the most common type of contraction that occurs in most sports or physical activities that we perform in our day to day. Normally the muscular tensions that we exert are usually accompanied by a shortening and lengthening of the muscle fibers of a muscle. In turn, the isotonic contraction is divided into two, concentric and eccentric.

Concentric concentration: is that which happens when a muscle makes a tension capable of overcoming a resistance, producing a shortening and subsequent mobilization of a part of the body overcoming said resistance. For example, when we take a spoon and take it to our mouths to eat, a concentric shortening occurs. Putting examples in the gym on the bench press the movement of raising the bar, is equivalent to the concentric phase.

Eccentric concentration: we can say that it is one in which, given a resistance, we exert a greater tension with the muscle, so that said muscle is lengthened. In the case of the bench press, the eccentric phase is when we lower the bar to the chest.
