Differences in muscle wet weight (A-B), physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA) (C-D), and fascicle length of dissected fascicles as measured at 90° (E-F) at post-cast (n = 5 young, n = 5 old) and 4 weeks of recovery (n = 5 young, n = 6 old) in casted muscles compared to control muscles. Data are displayed as mean ± standard deviation. *Difference between indicated points (P < 0.05). **Effect of timepoint with control and casted legs combined (P < 0.05). #Effect of leg with timepoints combined (P < 0.05)
