Question:medium

Distance between corresponding successive points of heel contact of the opposite feet is termed step length and its mean value for a normal adult is around:

Show Hint

Gait Terminology Clarification: - $\textbf{1 Step} = \text{Heel strike of Left foot to Heel strike of Right foot} \approx \textbf{30 inches}$. - $\textbf{1 Stride} = \text{Heel strike of Left foot to the next Heel strike of Left foot} \approx \textbf{60 inches}$. - Stride Length is always exactly double the individual Step Length in a balanced, symmetrical gait.
