| Did the unilateral KE intervention (2x100s MVCs) induce fatigue in the same KE? Compare KE force pre- and post-test MVC values. |
2-way repeated (within subjects design) measures ANOVA (6 conditions [EF IPSI, EF CONTRA, EF Control, PF IPSI, PF CONTRA, PF Control] × 2 time points) |
| Did the unilateral KE intervention (2x100s MVCs) or control condition induce changes in the ipsilateral and contralateral PF single MVC torque and EMG (absolute data)? | 2-way repeated (within subjects design) measures ANOVA (3 conditions [PF IPSI, PF CONTRA, PF Control] × 2 times) |
| Did the unilateral KE intervention (2x100s MVCs) or control condition induce changes in the ipsilateral and contralateral EF single MVC torque and EMG (absolute data)? | 2-way repeated (within subjects design) measures ANOVA (3 conditions [EF IPSI, EF CONTRA, EF Control] × 2 times) |
| Did the unilateral KE intervention (2x100s MVCs) or control condition have different relative effect on the EF and PF single MVC force/torque and EMG (normalized data)? | 2-way repeated measures (within subjects design) ANOVA (2 muscles × 2 conditions [IPSI vs. Control]). (2 muscles × 2 conditions [IPSI vs. CONTRA]) |
| Did the unilateral KE intervention (2x100s MVCs) or control condition affect the EF and PF fatigue index differently? | 2-way repeated (within subjects design) measures ANOVA (2 muscles × 3 conditions [IPSI, CONTRA, Control]) |
