Type Definition Example Isotonic - Force remains constant through arc of motion Bicep curls using free weights - Improves motor performance Isometric - Constant muscle length and tension that is proportional to the external Pushing against an immovable object load - Causes muscle hypertrophy Concentric - Shortened muscle, tension that is proportional to the external load Biceps curl with elbow flexing
