Characteristics of experimental groups prior to injections

Group	Sample size	Body weight (g)	Isometric force in situ (mN)	Immediate force deficit (%)
Uninjected	10	30.0 ± 0.6	414 ± 12	52 ± 3
A110‐1 injected	3	31.3 ± 1.4	411 ± 2	48 ± 6
RB40.34/9A9 injected	8	29.1 ± 0.5	395 ± 7	52 ± 4

Body weight, initial force generation of EDL muscles (measured prior to lengthening contractions), and immediate force deficit (measured 10 min after lengthening contractions) were not different among experimental groups as determined by one‐way analysis of variance tests. Values are means ± 1 SEM.
