Answer:

Concentric muscle contraction is when a muscle fiber is shortened to generate force to move an object

Eccentric muscle contraction is the opposite of what concentric contraction is. For eccentric muscle contraction, the muscle is lengthening.

Isometric muscle contraction is when a muscle is activated, but instead of being allowed to lengthen or shorten, it is held at one constant length.

inna [77]

This is a false statement. There is a big difference between feeling the burn and feeling pain, if you are feeling pain it could mean that you have pulled a muscle and you should stop and consult your doctor, also if you are feeling back pain that means you maybe pinched a nerve or slipped the disc. Lastly, other signs pain you should look for is ankle pain and feeling lightheaded because ankle pain could indicate a sprain and lightheaded can indicate that you are either overworked yourself or you are not getting enough water consumption.
