Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to understand and compare the metabolic and mechanical demands placed on the body while walking normally and walking with the use of an apparatus that drives leg swing through the use of the arms. This information will help the investigators identify how arm swing mechanics helps minimize energy demands and to use this knowledge to design walking rehabilitation interventions in the future.
