A recent study found a three-second, three-times-a-week muscle-building method.
Eccentric training is more beneficial than bicep curls, according to ECU researchers in Australia. Reversing and elongating the muscle improves muscular conditioning.
This increases muscular stiffness and brain alterations related with muscle response in nine seconds every week.
Two groups of 26 healthy young people participated. One group did three-second bicep extensions twice a week, whereas the other did it three times.
Researchers measured elbow flexor forces and biceps brachii and brachialis thickness.
They compared their outcomes to a comparable trial where individuals exercised five days a week. Muscle-lengthening activities outperformed muscle-shortening workouts in that research.
