Participants Needed. We are recruiting individuals who have experienced a stroke and are able to walk with minimal restriction and also age similar control participants that have NOT experienced a stroke between the ages of 18-89 for a research study on walking. The focus of this study is to understand how to optimize the delivery of a combined strength and aerobic training regimen to individuals with post stroke hemiparesis and reduce overuse and inefficiencies associated with the unaffected leg while walking. If you qualify, your participation in the study will span a single study visit, with a total time commitment of 3 hours. You will be compensated for your time. Please e-mail Christopher Hurt at cphurt@uab.edu or contact him by phone at 205-934-8517 if you are interested.
