Effect of natural trunk inclination on variability in soleus inhibition and tibialis anterior activation during gait initiation in young adults

Highlights • Natural trunk inclination affects gait initiation in young adults. • Backward leaners showed less soleus inhibition in APA than forward leaners. • Initial soleus activity was the best predictor variable for soleus inhibition.
