Step-to-step variability indicates disruption to balance control when linking the arms and legs during treadmill walking.
We recently discovered that a rope-pulley system that mechanically coupling the arms, legs and treadmill during walking can assist with forward propulsion in healthy subjects, leading to significant reductions in metabolic cost. However, walking balance may have been compromised, which could hinder...
