Muscle Volume (in Cubic Centimeters) Measured 3 Weeks (Pretraining) and 1 Year After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction for the Eccentric Exercise Group (n=20) and the Standard Rehabilitation Group (n=20)a
↵ a Values are mean ± standard deviation.
b Compared with pretraining values, muscle volume increases of the involved thigh at 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were significantly greater in the eccentric exercise group (P≤.01).
