Fig. 4. Swarm plots representing the MUs DR at (A) recruitment, (B) derecruitment, and (C) during the steady-state phase at the 3 data collection points. From left
to right, MUs properties are presented for the 3 different submaximal contraction intensities (i.e., 10%, 25%, and 50% MVC). Individual MUs are represented by
dots and clustered by subject. Summary data are presented as mean § SEM, and the direction of the changes is highlighted by a connection line. Significance
levels are: * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. AR = active recovery; DR = discharge rate; LS = limb suspension; MUs = motor units; MVC = maximal volun-
tary isometric contraction; pps = pulses per second; SEM = standard error of the mean.TaggedAPTARAEnd
