1. Hill’s proposed force–velocity curve
Hill’s proposed force–velocity curve. Eccentric contractions have only shown greater force production compared with isometric contraction in laboratory modeling, as predicted by Hill (dotted line). However, physiologically, maximal eccentric force production is achieved at approximately isometric levels (solid line).
