Reciprocal Lean: Isometric, Concentric, and Eccentric Contractions
| Isometric |
Your medial hamstrings and arms are isometrically contracting as you and your partner kick down into the ground, squeeze your thighs together, and lean away from each other. |
| Concentric |
Your arms are strengthening as you pull their arms toward your body. |
| Eccentric |
Your arms are resistance stretching as they get pulled away from your body. |
| Reciprocal |
The same holds true for your tandem partner. |
