Neuromuscular Age-Related Adjustment of Gait When Moving Upwards and Downwards

Neuromuscular Age-Related Adjustment of Gait When Moving Upwards and Downwards

Locomotor movements are accommodated to various surface conditions by means of specific locomotor adjustments. This study examined underlying age-related differences in neuromuscular control during level walking and on a positive or negative slope, and during stepping upstairs and downstairs. Ten el...
