Speaking of contraction speed, it's been demonstrated that fast concentric contractions induce more muscle growth than slow concentric contractions. (3) Therefore, it doesn't matter if the muscle contraction is concentric or eccentric in nature, research has demonstrated that a faster tempo will lead to more hypertrophy than a slower one.
1. Train the eccentric phase with the same speed and load as the concentric phase.
2. Perform the eccentric phase as fast as possible while controlling the movement.
3. There's no correlation between excessive, eccentric-induced soreness and hypertrophy.
