A, the maximal twitch response of force (P_t), maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) and maximal electrically evoked tetanic contraction (P_o, recorded at 150 impulses s⁻¹) in control (□) and disused muscle (). B, MVC force as % P_o after 7-day immersion in control (□) and disused muscle (). ▪ indicates the force deficit, being the difference between P_o and the MVC. C, mean value of the force of contraction of the triceps surae with doublet stimulation at different intervals between pulses. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001.
