In an effort to lose weight and excess fat, Americans in 1989 spent over 30 billion dollars on 54 million diet books and for services and products from 1500 weight control clinics..

An 18 yr. old teen who is 5’10 and weighs 150lbs. Carries about 90lbs. as water and 30lbs. as fat. 30 lbs. are lean tissues: muscles, organs and bones of the skeleton. If all of that is stripped away the person only weighs 30lbs.. Ataxia gait. Inability to make movements which require groups of muscles to act together in varying degrees of co-contraction.. Easiest to observe during single-stance phase as requires co-contraction of leg muscles in order to support body weight, whilst co-ordinated change in the relative activity of the muscles to move body weight forward. Andrea Strickland. PTA 2710. Purpose. Body weight support treadmill training (BWSTT) for walking ability after brain damage is an approach under current investigation. Efficiency of this method beyond traditional training is lacking evidence, especially in patients needing walking assistance after stroke.
