Chronic Adaptations to Eccentric Cycling Training: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the effects of eccentric cycling (ECC_CYC) training on performance, physiological, and morphological parameters in comparison to concentric cycling (CON_CYC) training. Searches were conducted using PubMed, Embase, and ScienceDirect. Studies comparing the effect of ECC_CYC and CON_CYC training regimens on performance, physiological, and/or morphological parameters were included. Bayesian multilevel meta-analysis models were used to estimate the population's mean difference between chronic responses from ECC_CYC and CON_CYC training protocols. Group levels and meta-regression were used to evaluate the specific effects of subjects and study characteristics. Fourteen studies were included in this review
