Figure 5From: Plantar flexion force induced by amplitude-modulated tendon vibration and associated soleus V/F-waves as an evidence of a centrally-mediated mechanism contributing to extra torque generation in humansV/F-wave amplitudes computed at different times during the amplitude-modulated vibratory stimulation. A) Average V/F-wave amplitudes calculated for individual subjects, indicating the changes from VFc to VFc’, from VF1 to VF1′ and from VF2 to VF2′. B) Average group data calculated for V/F-wave amplitudes.White and black bars represent data obtained during the increasing (VFc, VF1 and VF2) and decreasing (VF1′, VF2′and VFc’) phase of the vibration amplitude, respectively. Asterisks indicate significant differences (P < 0.05) between conditions.Back to article page
