KIN 6015 – Biomechanical and Neurological Basis of Human Movement An orthopedic surgeon refers an athlete recovering from ACL reconstructive surgery (8 weeks post-op) to the motion analysis laboratory for a 3D gait analysis with EMG. Perform the gait analysis using the following: Select and describe the joint kinematic variables most relevant for this analysis Select and describe the joint kinetics and ground reaction forces (vertical, AP, ML) most relevant for this analysis Select the muscles most relevant for this analysis and describe their activation patterns with surface EMG Include descriptions of what is considered normal kinematic, kinetic, and muscle patterns of walking and how this patient may deviate from them
