Error in Table

In the original publication [1], the values for the Ergometer Group in “Table 2” were incorrect. Specifically, the standard deviation for the Ergometer Group was mistakenly recorded as the mean value for the Ergometer Group, while the mean value for the Ergometer Group was replaced with the standard deviation for the LEX Group. This is evident from the fact that the standard deviation for the LEX Group and the mean value for the Ergometer Group are identical, which should not be the case.
Specifically, for “(a) Mean %MVC of each muscle”, the reported values were as follows: TFL at 4.9 ± 3.0, VL at 7.4 ± 6.6, BF at 11.9 ± 9.0, GC at 6.0 ± 5.8, SOL at 19.9 ± 10.3, and TA at 4.6 ± 1.9. The corrected values for this category are as follows: TFL at 3.0 ± 1.7, VL at 6.6 ± 9.0, BF at 9.0 ± 10.1, GC at 5.8 ± 3.9, SOL at 10.3 ± 9.9, and TA at 1.9 ± 1.4.
For “(b) Peak %MVC of each muscle”, the original incorrect values were as follows: TFL at 7.1 ± 5.7, VL at 10.0 ± 13.3, BF at 18.0 ± 17.7, GC at 20.0 ± 11.1, SOL at 43.8 ± 25.3, and TA at 13.6 ± 3.4. The correct values for this category are as follows: TFL at 5.7 ± 3.7, VL at 13.3 ± 18.2, BF at 17.7 ± 21.4, GC at 11.1 ± 8.1, SOL at 25.3 ± 38.5, and TA at 3.4 ± 2.5.
The revised Table 2 is presented below.

The authors confirm that this typographical error does not impact the core findings or interpretations in the manuscript. All analyses and discussions were based on the correct figures, and this error affects only the presentation of data in the table.
This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
