Values are Mean ± Standard Error for n = 3 subjects.

*Indicates a p-value of less than 0.05 showing significant differences between conditions.

Statistical power, P, is reported under the p-value.

Tukey Honestly Significant Difference (THSD) results are reported for metrics with significance.

PM = proportional myoelectric control PMFI = proportional myoelectric control with flexor inhibition
