Gait
The sequence of limb motions to move the body forward while maintaining stability in stance
Step
The distance between one floor contact and the next floor contact
Stride
Distance between two steps
Stance
Period of ground contact with the foot.
60% of gait cycle
HAT Advancement only
Swing
Period of no ground contact with the foot.
40% GC
HAT + Limb Advancement
Stance parts
Initial double limb stance (10% GC)
Single limb stance (40% GC)
Terminal double limb stance (10% GC)
Parts of Initial Double Limb Stance
Initial Contact (0%-2% GC)
Loading Response (0%-10% GC)
Initial Contact (IC)
Foot touches ground
Prepare for weight loading
Initiates Heel Rocker
External Force= GRF causes PF and knee hyperextension
Internal Force= DF eccentric contraction and HS and Quads fire to stabilize knee
Loading Response (LR)
Started by IC-Heel Rocker-Foot Flat-contralateral foot lifts
Absorbs shock, transfers weight between limbs, and continues forward progression
External Force= knee and hip flexion (GRF) (No GRF PF)
Internal Force= knee ext (quads) and hip ext (glut max)
Parts of Single Limb Stance
Mid-Stance (10%-30% GC)
Terminal Stance (30%-50% GC)
Mid-stance (MSt)
100% of WB on one limb
Ankle Rocker- Tibia progression
Center of pressure rapidly progresses from heel to forefoot
External Force= DF and knee flexion to knee ext (GRF)
Internal Force= Eccentric control of DF (Soleus)
Terminal Stance (TSt)
Heel starts to lift (Forefoot Rocker)
Center of pressure leaves the base of support of foot causing a controlled fall
Push-off phase
External Force= DF (GRF)
Internal Force= PF (Gastroc/Soleus)
Limb Advancement
Pre-swing (50%-60% GC)
Initial Swing (60%-73% GC)
Mid-Swing (73%-87% GC)
Terminal Swing (87%-100% GC)
Pre-Swing (PSw)
Contralateral foot touches the ground (Terminal Double limb stance)-Toe Rocker-WB quickly diminishing-Foot lifts
Swing preparation
External Force= knee flexion and decreasingly small DF (GRF and a little gastroc)
Internal Force= decreasing counter PF (Gastroc/Soleus), knee ext (Quads), and hip flexion (rectus femoris and adductor mass)
Initial Swing (ISw)
First 1/3 of swing
Foot leaves the ground-foot clearance-swinging foot catches up with the stance leg
Foot clearance= Foot DF (TA), Knee Flexion (Gastroc-bicep femoris), hip flexion (iliopsoas)
Mid-Swing (MSw)
Middle 1/3 of swing
Swing foot catches up with the stance leg-knee ext- tibia becomes vertical
External Force= Hip ext, knee ext, foot PF (gravity)
Internal Force= Hip flexion (Iliopsoas), Knee Ext (quads), Foot DF
Terminal Swing (TSw)
Last 1/3 of swing
Tibia becomes vertical- Knee exts-Initial contact
Considered pre-stance=preparing the leg for weight shift and baring
External Forces= Knee ext and hip flexion (momentum), hip ext, knee flex, and PF (gravity)
Internal Forces= Knee and hip stabilization (Quads and HS co-contraction), DF (TA)
Functional Divisions
Locomotor Unit: Legs, Pelvis, Lumbar Spine
Passenger Unit: Head, Arms, Pelvis, Lumbar Spine
Vertical Ground Reaction Force
Quick increase with Loading Response
Slight decrease due to shock absorption
Quick increase with push off
Quick decrease with transferring of weight
AP Sheering Forces
Quick initial braking with initial contact (planting foot)
Neutral forces as you heel, ankle, and forefoot rock
Quick propulsion as you push off in terminal stance
Medial-Lateral Forces
Small initial lateral force (period of possible ankle sprains)
Rest of the time is medially directed force
