Larger changes in hip-ankle coordination and a decrease in knee range of motion in the weaker limb during treadmill walking were related to improvements in skilled walking following locomotor training in individuals with SCI. The changes in coordination seem to reflect some restoration of normative patterns and the adoption of compensatory strategies, depending on the participant.
