The contralateral repeated bout effect is present in knee flexors but is smaller than the ipsilateral effect and does not last for 28 days.
CL-RBE for knee flexors may inform bilateral eccentric protocols; leaves open durability and magnitude versus ipsilateral effects.
These results showed that CL-RBE was evident for KF in a similar manner to that for EF, but did not last for 28 d, and the CL-RBE was smaller than the ipsilateral RBE.
