Figure 4. Ex vivo muscle kinetic properties of contraction after the three-month intervention period. Kinetic properties of muscle contraction including the rate of force development for soleus (SOL) maximal force (A), soleus submaximal force (B), EDL maximal force (C), and EDL submaximal force (D). The rate of relaxation for soleus maximal force (E), soleus submaximal force (F), EDL maximal force (G), and EDL submaximal force (H). **p<0.01, *p<0.05, one-way ANOVA with Tukey. n = 8 CTRL, n = 9 VWR, n = 8 CTRL+L-BAIBA, n = 8 VWR+L-BAIBA. Mean ± SD.
