摘要: Background:Specific weightbearing instructions continue to be a part of routine orthopaedic clinical practice on an injured or postoperative extremity. Researchers and clinicians have struggled define the best strategies maximize outcomes.Purpose:To investigate average percentage body weight (APBW) values, distribution percentages (WBDP), cadence values entire foot, hindfoot, forefoot during changing resistance incline elliptical trainer, as well suggest implications.Study Design:Descriptive laboratory study.Methods:An original research study was performed consisting 30 asymptomatic subjects (mean age, 29.54 ± 12.64 years; range, 21-69 years). The protocol included 3 consecutive tests within speed range 70 95 steps/min. SmartStep gait analysis system utilized measure values.Results:The APBW for foot ranged between 70% 81%, t...
