Abstract
This study investigates how varying walking speeds affect power, stride, balance, and symmetry in gait mechanics. We aim to establish connections between speed and gait, providing a foundation for future research comparing these parameters in individuals with and without a history of mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI).
