Figure 1

Measured and fitted torque–angle relationships. (a) Individual torque–angle relationships derived from maximum fixed-end plantarflexion contractions for all participants. (b–g) Subplots of six individual examples with corresponding coefficients of determination (R2). Note that (e–g) exhibit a pronounced descending limb of the torque–angle relationship, whereas (b–d) do not show this. (0° ankle joint angle refers to neutral foot position; DF dorsiflexion, PF plantarflexion angles).
