Fig. 7. Fractional increases in blood flow (FdQ) above values
for moderate-speed level running due to an increase in speed (hatched bars) or
incline (black bars) for stance muscles versus swing muscles (for
division see Table 1). Stance
and swing muscles were assigned following Marsh et al.
(Marsh et al., 2004) with two
differences. (1) All of the increase in blood flow to the FT during incline
running was assumed to occur during stance, and (2) in the present study we
measured separately the blood flow to the swing and stance portions of the IF.
Values are means ± s.e.m. (N=8). *Significant difference
(P<0.05, Wilcoxon test) in the FdQ values for
speed and incline conditions.
