Brief Summary
Investigators would like to examine, what are strategies for balance recovery in gait perturbations. Different perturbation types where used in the current study. The study involves the analysis of kinematic and kinetic parameters. Researchers hypothesize that research including young healthy adults would help to elaborate fall prevention program for seniors.

EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Participants were subjected to four different perturbation types while walking on the treadmill: 1. left treadmill belt deceleration for right leg toe off 2. right treadmill belt deceleration for left leg toe off 3. left treadmill belt acceleration for right leg heel strike 4. right treadmill belt acceleration for left leg heel strike Motion analysis was conducted to analyze effect of the intervention on gait.
