Typical gait parameters of an adult healthy population.
| Parameters (self-selected speed) | Range |
|---|---|
| Gait velocity (m/s) | 1.30–1.46 |
| Stride length (m) | 1.68–1.72 |
| Step length (m) | 0.68–0.85 |
| Stance phase (s) | 0.62–0.70 |
| Swing phase (s) | 0.36–0.40 |
| Cadence - fast walking (steps/min) | 113–118 |
| Single support (% of stride) | 60.6–62.0 |
| Double support (% of stride) | 21.2–23.8 |
