Forty normal persons had their gait tested using an instrumented treadmill. All were tested at the same speed of gait. The temporal factors of gait, the ataxia, and the external work of the gait were all calculated from the ground reaction forces. Ten women and ten men aged 20–29 years and ten women and ten men aged 60–69 were tested. The study demonstrated a constant pattern of gait independent of age and sex.Downloads
