Synergistic co-activation increases the extent of mechanical interaction between rat ankle plantar-flexors

Force transmission between rat ankle plantar-flexors has been found for physiological muscle lengths and relative positions, but only with all muscles maximally activated. The aims of this study were to assess intermuscular mechanical interactions between ankle plantar-flexors during (i) fully passi...
