Note: values are means and standard deviations (SD) in bracket. HRT = bilateral heavy-resistance strength training, BAL = predominately unilateral balance training, CON = old adults control group, YA = young adults control group, BLD = bilateral deficit, MIF-BL = maximal voluntary isometric force of both legs, MIF-ULL = maximal voluntary isometric force of the left leg, MIF-ULR = maximal voluntary isometric force of the right leg
