Question

Which of the following is an example of an eccentric contraction?

Answer 1

Eccentric contraction is a muscle lengthening under pressure as in when lifting weights or picking something up that is heavy such as a box.

Answer 2

The corrrect answer is D. Slowly Putting A Heavy Object Down. I have seen a lot of wrong answers for this, so I just wanted to clear it up. A bicep curl is a concentric contraction, not an eccentric contraction.
