Motor control studies have shown that when walking is performed while resisting a perturbation applied to the lower limb, the muscle activation pattern can be temporarily modified. The objective of the present study is to validate if such an approach, targeting the ankle, could specifically promote an increased activation of the ankle dorsiflexor muscles that are of key importance for the rehabilitation...
This study investigated the effects of walking in an elastic force field (FF) for varying durations (49–1,629 strides) on: (a) the magnitude and duration of aftereffects, (b) performance in the FF on the next day. On day 1 in the FF, subjects (n = 17) showed an initial large error in peak toe velocity during swing (9–61% above baseline) that was largely reduced within the first 40 strides. After FF...
