1 Applied Biomechanics GAIT ANALYSIS

2 If we analyze the gait what plane is the person walking? Looking at the right leg, we can label each part of the gait along with phases. Footstrike Eccentric Stance/Support Isometric Toe Off Concentric Swing Concentric Footstrike Eccentric

3 Footstrike Joints InvolvedActionAgonist Muscle

4 Footstrike Joints InvolvedActionAgonist Muscle HipFlexionIliopsoas, sartorius, rectus femoris, TFL KneeFlexionBiceps femoris, Semimembranosus, Semitendinosus, Gastrocnemius, and Sartorius AnkleDorsi flexionTibialis anterior

5 Toe Off Joints InvolvedActionAgonist Muscle

6 Toe Off Joints InvolvedActionAgonist Muscle HipExtension & Hyperextension Gluteus maximus, minimus, medius Biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus KneeExtensionRectus femoris, vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius AnklePlantar flexionGastrocnemius

7  Running has different phases than walking does  Footstrike Phase  Toe off Phase  Swing Phase  Stance/Support Phase  Floating Phase  Bracket where you think these phases are and label the phase along with the phase that is generated during the motion (eccentric, concentric, isometric) RUNNING

9  Stride length increases w/speed  Stride frequency increases w/speed  Swing phase longer when running  Stance phase longer when walking  Airborne during running; one point of contact maintained when walking WALKING VS. RUNNING
