Sway‐dependent changes in standing ankle stiffness caused by muscle thixotropy
KEY POINTS: The passive stiffness of the calf muscles contributes to standing balance, although the properties of muscle tissue are highly labile. We investigated the effect of sway history upon intrinsic ankle stiffness and demonstrated reductions in stiffness of up to 43% during conditions of incr...
