Subject S4: Magnitude (a) and directions (b) of possible double and triple, quadruple, and quintuple muscle combinations. Magnitude and direction were calculated from measured force in the A/P and M/L directions. Each graph shows the result when the muscle is activated alone followed by the result when the muscles are co-activated (Com) along with a black line indicating perfect vector addition. Percent difference between the linear combination and measured combination is shown above each graph. Error bars are standard deviation (n=10). A direction of 0° is directly right, 90° is purely anterior, 180° is directly left, and 270° is purely posterior. Acronyms: LES - left lumbar erector spinae, LQL - left quadratus lumborum, RGX - right gluteus maximus, RIL - right iliopsoas, RHS - right hamstring semimembranosus.
