Table 2.

Normalized maximum muscle activity (mean ± SD) for each muscle during the eccentric phase of all conditions (band, no band) and sessions (3RM, BW). Shaded bars represent trained group. *denotes a main effect of band (p<0.05) for that variable and ∧denotes a significant (p<0.05) interaction effect.
