Mean percentages of maximum voluntary contraction of all three muscles studied (i.e., m. sternocleidomastoideus, m. trapezius pars descendens and m. erector spinae) in the training and control groups during all long-arm centrifuge protocols with a helmet and night vision goggles (X-axis). The “X” in each box represents the mean value, and the line represents the median. The box represents the interquartile range (25th–75th percentile). The whiskers demarcate the 5th to the 95th percentile. *P < 0.05
