step length
between 2 right feet is?
stride length
external rotation of the hip is?

double support which is 14-20% of the stance phase disappears in running
true or false
true
for sagittal plane we can detect if the left and right step length is equal and any deformity from the lateral aspect is seen
true or false?
true
the symmetry of the gait we can see it from which plane?
frontal
for gait training approximation should not be done
true or false?
false
trunk training is the first gait training purpose
true or false?
true
when is the initial approximation applied during gait training?
after the heel contact for facilitating the weight shifting
approximation applied on?
shoulder or pelvis
Resistance directed diagonally backward facilitates and strengthens
the?
anterior trunk and limb muscles
- Resistance directed diagonally forward facilitates and strengthens the?
posterior trunk and limb muscles
preparation for gait training we need?
wheelchair practicing
how we can do wheelchair training?
forward and backward with and without resisitance
how to get the erect position?
Combination of Isotronics with resistance at the head and shoulders to get upper
trunk
