Force-Velocity Curve
Short definition
Relationship between muscle force and contraction velocity: eccentric > isometric > concentric.
Full definition
The Hill force-velocity curve shows concentric force decreasing with shortening velocity while eccentric force slightly increases with stretching velocity; isometric force sits in between. In isometric training the velocity is zero.
Examples
In isometric contraction the velocity is zero — a single point on the force-velocity curve.
