Figure 2

Correspondence of secondary plantar flexion torque with percent hip extension torque in subjects after stroke. An asterisk (*) denotes statistical significance between conditions (p < 0.05). The figure indicates the plantar flexion torque (standardized by body weight) generated when exerting the hip extension torque at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of the maximal hip extension. There was a significant main effect of exertion condition. The secondarily generated plantar flexion torque (STo) corresponding to 50% of the maximum voluntary hip extension torque (50%STo) was higher than the 25%STo, and the 100% (STo) was higher than the 75%STo, 50%STo, and 25%STo. The 75%STo was higher than the 25%STo.
