Objectives Learn new gait terminology Understand and demonstrate the components of the gait cycle Demonstrate ability to calculate gait measurements Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Terminology Gait- action of walking Gait cycle- components of walking process Cadence- steps/time Velocity-speed; distance/time Stride length- how long a step is Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Gait Cycle is broken into 2 phases: Stance phase Heel strike Foot flat or Mid-stance Push off Heel then toe Swing phase Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Heel strike, foot flat, push off http://www.me.sc.edu/fs/voglewede/design(2).htm What is other leg doing during this? Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Visual Demonstration MatScan Barefoot Pressure Measurement and Gait Analysis http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuaEdhgLdKM Find a partner… Take off your shoes and watch each other’s gait cycle Describe your partner’s gait cycle to them verbally. Do you see abnormalities? Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Why is knowing gait important? Identify developmental abnormalities Identify foot or leg structural abnormalities Need for Orthotics Flexibility or Strength deficits Helps determine type of athletic shoe Indicator of injury or physical condition Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Cadence Steps/Minute 180 steps/minute: good running pace Determining cadence: Steps counted x 60 seconds time in seconds http://www.fitnessblowout.com/equipment/stair-climber/764 Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Velocity Speed Distance Time Meters Seconds Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Taking Gait Measurements Stride Length Measure from heel strike of foot to next heel strike of same foot http://www.me.sc.edu/fs/voglewede/design(2).htm Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Calculated Stride Length Used in races in which you cannot measure each individual stride Velocity x 60 seconds x 2 steps cadence Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019

Calculate: Given a runner has: Find Ran 40 meter distance 27 steps over that distance Completed it in 6.6 seconds Find Velocity Cadence Calculated stride length Property of CTE Joint Venture 1/15/2019
