(a) Acute and (b) chronic stimulation study design. Acute medial GAS and TA muscles were dissected immediately (glycogen content analysis) or six hours (p70S6K analysis) after stimulation to assess muscle glycogen content and phosphorylated p70S6K. Chronically stimulated TA and GAS muscles were dissected 24 h after the last stimulus of the chronic response. Both muscles were used for muscle weight, CSA, western blotting, RT-PCR, and muscle glycogen content analysis.
