To determine whether a 10-week supervised hip flexor stretching program in frail elderly subjects would increase peak hip extension, stride length, and gait speed and reduce anterior pelvic tilt during comfortable and fast-paced walking.A double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial.Pre- and post-treatment assessments were performed in a gait laboratory and stretching exercises were performed outside...
To determine whether a 10-week supervised hip flexor stretching program in healthy elderly subjects would increase peak hip extension, stride length and gait speed and reduce anterior pelvic tilt during walking.A double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial.Pre- and posttreatment assessments were performed in a gait laboratory, whereas stretching exercises were performed outside of the laboratory,...
Instrumented treadmills offer a number of advantages for the biomechanical analysis of elderly gait, yet it is unclear how closely treadmill gait approximates overground gait. Although studies have indicated that the kinematics and kinetics of overground and treadmill gait are very similar in young adults, it still needs to be determined whether data collected in elderly adults during treadmill walking...
