In this episode of the Healthy Living Scottsdale Podcast, Coach Adam and Coach Terra break down the three main types of muscle contractions: concentric, eccentric, and isometric.

They explain how each contraction works, why all three are essential for building strength, and how proper control and tempo can improve performance while reducing injury risk. Using practical, real world examples, the conversation highlights why muscles are responsible for more than just lifting weights. They also stabilize, control, and absorb force in everyday movement.

Tune in to understand the purpose behind your training programs and why intention and control matter in every rep.
