Gait

Involves swing phase and stance phase (when foot is weight bearing) Walking produces pelvic tilt and rotation, hip and knee flexion/extension and a smoothly coordinated interaction btwn pelvis, hip, knee, ankle, and foot Swing phase o Occurs rom pre-swing toe-off (TO) position, with acceleration though the initial swing the mid-sing (MSW) and terminal swing phase o Limb decelerates to the heel strike (HS) phase when foot meets the ground Stance phase o Occurs from the heel strike position to the flat foot (FF) position, to the mid-stance (MST) phase, and then the heel off (HO) o Forward thrust to toe-off position and the heels trike position for the opposite foot

Gait cycle Toe off (TO) to Mid swing (MSW)

MSW to heel strike (HS) HS to flat foot (FF)

Muscle actions Hip flexors accelerate thigh Knee is flexed Foot dorsiflexed to clear ground Knee extended rapidly Foot dorsiflexed Hip flexed Knee extended Ankle is neutral position but foot plantarflexes flat on ground Limb extensors stabilize weight bearing joints

Swing Stance

FF to mid stance (MST)

MST to heel-off (HO)

HO to Toe-Off

Body moves forward Extensors support limb while other limb is in swing phase Hip abductors control pelvic tilt Body continues forward Planar flexors contract as weight moves from heel to metatarsal heads Hip abductors control pelvic tilt Push off as opposite heel strikes ground Plantarflexors exert thrust Knee flexes Foot goes into dorsiflexed position at beginning of HO to plantarflexed as toes push off at TO Hip abductors relax while hip flexors ready for swing face
