Brain Functional Connectivity is Different during VoluntaryConcentric and Eccentric Muscle Contraction

Previous studies report greater activation in the cortical motor network in controlling eccentric contraction (EC) than concentric contraction (CC) of human skeletal muscles despite lower activation level of the muscle associated with EC. It is unknown, however, whether the strength of functional co...
