Older adults with muscle weakness had less steady force

A measure of force variability rose about 35% when adults with muscle weakness subtracted numbers during ankle contractions, compared with the muscle…A measure of force variability rose about 35% when adults with muscle weakness subtracted numbers during ankle contractions, compared with the muscle task alone.
