    increased muscle mass in older generations (Borde et al.‚ 2015). Eccentric resistance training can also counteract the injuries required from isotonic contractions. During an eccentric contraction the muscle is considerably lengthened due to a greater muscular force‚ this causes disruption to the alignment of sarcomeres as well as causing them to overstretch (Dias et al.‚ 2015). When the sarcomere becomes overstretched damage occurs and therefore an injury to the muscle is caused (Proske & Morgan‚ 2001)
