IntraBS, intra-rater between session; InterWS, inter-rater within session; rms-EMG, root mean squared electromyography; HV-LV, difference between stretches at high velocity and stretches at low velocity; AOC, Angle of Catch. Numbers in bold reflect values larger than their corresponding intra- or inter-rater MDC.
