Recently, the concept of eccentric overload training has been gaining a lot of social media coverage and popularity. This type of training has been around for a while despite its uncommon use in an S&C coach’s toolbox. Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport Volume 20, Issue 10, October 2017, Pages 943-951 Skeletal muscle functional and structural adaptations after eccentric overload flywheel resistance training: a systematic review and meta-analysis Sergio Maroto-Izquierdo David García-López Rodrigo Fernandez-Gonzalo Osvaldo C. Moreira Javier González-Gallego José A. de Paz https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsams.2017.03.004 Abstract Objectives The purpose of this meta-analysis was to examine the effect of flywheel (FW) resistance training with Eccentric Overload (FW-EOT) on muscle size and functional capacities (i.e. strength and power) in athletes and healthy subjects, and to compare FW-induced adaptations with those triggered by traditional resistance exercise interventions. Design A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. Methods A search of electronic databases [PubMed, MEDLINE (SportDiscus), Web of Science, Scopus and PEDro] was conducted to identify all publications employing FW-EOT up to April 30, 2016. Outcomes were analyzed as continuous outcomes using a random effects model to calculate a standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% CI. A total of 9 studies with 276 subjects and 92 effect sizes met the inclusion criteria and were included in the statistical analyses. Results The overall pooled estimate from the main effects analysis was 0.63 (95% CI 0.49–0.76) with a significant (p
