Figure Lengend Snippet: Experimental setup showing how participants walk from the fixed platform onto the treadmill (Fig. 1A). Participants take two steps on the fixed platform before stepping onto the treadmill with their third step. Note, the stop-light switches were used to deactivate the treadmill motor during MOVING trials. Figure 1B shows experimental data for a single control subject recorded during a single stationary AFTER trial (Fig. 1B). A Fastrak sensor was placed at the C7 vertebrae and recorded linear trunk position along the antero-posterior axis, used to calculate gait approach velocity and trunk sway, after stepping onto the treadmill (Fig. 1B). Electomyographic (EMG) electrodes recorded muscle activity of the medial gastrocnemius (MG) and tibialis anterior (TA) for the leg that stepped onto the treadmill (Fig. 1B).
Article Snippet: Bipolar active surface electrodes (model DE2.1, Delsys Inc, USA) were placed on the belly of the muscle.
