The purpose of this study is to investigate age effects on foot-ankle mechanical power interactions in walking and their underlying mechanisms to improve walking performance and economy in older adults.
During your visit, you will perform several balance challenges while walking on a treadmill. We will record your body motion and you will wear carbon fiber insoles.
