Table 2.

The theoretical potential of eccentric training methods to benefit hypertrophy, strength, and power output.

Eccentric Training Method	Hypertrophy	Strength	Power
Tempo Eccentric Training	++	+	+
Flywheel Inertial Training	+++	++	++
Accentuated Eccentric Loading	+++	+++++	++++
Plyometric Training	+	++	++++

+ = low potential; +++ = moderate potential; +++++ = high potential.
