摘要: Carrying heavy loads is known to cause a change in the gait. This study examines gait pattern subjects carrying backpack of 15% their body weight while walking on force platform. Relationship between and synchronous beats was explored by conducting experiments where walked synchronized load see impact rhythm reducing effect parameters (stride length) eventually making them symmetric.
