Experimental procedures overview. Study participants completed 30 minutes of overground gait training automated via the closed-loop control of music, as described in Figure 1. Speed-controlled biomechanical and physiological evaluations were conducted immediately before and after the training to characterize changes in walking quality, as measured by the energetic cost of walking and gait asymmetry.

*Walking speed was experimentally controlled across the pre-training and post-training evaluations.
