Isokinetic Contraction

Isokinetic contraction refers to a type of muscle contraction that occurs at a constant speed throughout the movement. This means that the muscle exerts force while shortening or lengthening, but the speed of movement remains the same, regardless of the amount of force applied. Often used in rehabilitation and strength training, isokinetic exercises are performed with specialized equipment that adjusts resistance based on the user's effort, ensuring safe and effective muscle conditioning. This helps improve strength, endurance, and overall muscle functionality in a controlled manner.
