This included a significant improvement in power (Watts) in the eccentric group that was not replicated in the concentric group [eccentric: 179 ± 62.3 final – 158.3 ± 59 baseline ( p = 0.001); concentric: 164.9 ± 56 final – 160.2 ± 69 baseline ( p = 0.52), with a trend toward significance for the difference between the two groups ( p = 0.09)].
