Relevance – People with m-iSCI can recover basic walking function but still have difficulty performing skilled walking required for everyday environments.

Measures at baseline, posttraining, 1 and 6 mo: – Overground skilled walking capacity (Spinal Cord Injury- Functional Ambulation Profile [SCI-FAP]). – Walking speed and distance.

Participants in Loko-R group: – Performed significantly better on SCI-FAP than controls at posttraining and follow-up assessments. – Tended to reported higher perceived exertion during training.
