From: Response of tibialis anterior tendon to a chronic exposure of stretch-shortening cycles: age effects
(A) The stiffness from unloaded and loaded limbs at the inflection point by age group. (B) The stiffness from unloaded and loaded limbs at the failure point by age group. (C) Normalized stiffness for old and young tendons at the inflection point. Each loaded tendon is normalized to its unloaded control. (D) Normalized stiffness for old and young tendons at the failure point. Each loaded tendon is normalized to its unloaded control. Data is depicted as mean values ± standard error. Different letters denote significance at the 0.05 level.
