What does isotonic training involve?

  1. Only concentric muscle contractions

  2. Only eccentric muscle contractions

  3. Both concentric and eccentric muscle contractions

  4. None, it involves isometric contractions

The correct answer is: Both concentric and eccentric muscle contractions

Isotonic training involves both concentric and eccentric muscle contractions, not just one or the other. Choice A is incorrect because it suggests that isotonic training only involves concentric muscle contractions, which is not true. Choice B is incorrect because it suggests that isotonic training only involves eccentric muscle contractions, which is also not true. Choice D is incorrect because it suggests that isotonic training involves isometric contractions, which is not the case. Isometric contractions involve no movement, while both concentric and eccentric contractions involve some level of movement.
