Wearable Ankle Power Training for Better Mobility in Aging

Preventing walking disability in our rapidly aging population is an enormous public health challenge. Fundamental to their loss of functional mobility is that the muscles needed to power walking experience decline in function with age. Wearable assistive devices can be designed to augment the function of these muscles and may make walking easier. If you are a healthy older adult, you may be able to participate in a training intervention to determine the feasibility of a passive wearable ankle device that strengthens walking dynamics and decreases fall risk.
