Posture dependent ankle and foot muscle responses evoked by Achilles’ tendon vibration

•Heteronymous Ia afferents link the soleus to flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscle.•Soleus and FDB activity increased in response to Achilles’ tendon vibration.•Soleus and FDB sustained activation after vibration in standing and leaning.•Soleus and FDB synergy is posture depedent. To investigate the...
