Table 3.
Activity bursts followed by a reduced EMG activity had a similar amplitude but tended to be longer when compared to the activity bursts not followed by a reduced EMG activity
| Parameter | Activity burst | |
|---|---|---|
| Only | With reduced EMG activity | |
| Number (%) | 75.3 ± 6.6a | 24.7 ± 7.0 |
| Duration (msec) | 218 ± 24 | 427 ± 97 |
| Amplitude (mV) | 2.64 ± 0.48 | 1.70 ± 0.11 |
The data are only for 2‐month‐old gastrocnemius as the number of reduced EMG activity periods was too small for a similar analysis from 6‐month‐old gastrocnemius. EMG, electromyography; LSD, least square difference; ANOVA, analyses of variance.

Mean value significantly different from 50%, ANOVA and LSD P < 0.05.
