Interventions

Measure the muscle activity at the time of using the walker with the surface electromyogram. The activity of the brain is measured with a surface electroencephalograph. The posture is measured with a
walker A&quot
, the fixed walker is &quot
walker B&quot
, and the alternating walker is &quot
walker C&quot
, and walks in total of 12 patterns. Assign numbers 1 to 4 to 12 patterns and perform measurement in the order of the numbers appearing using the random number table. The measurement shall be a flat s

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: For those who do not have orthopedic surgeons / neurological problems and do not have a decline in motor function so as not to exhibit gait style features due to disease at walking.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Those who have had a history of orthopedic diseases or central nervous disorders or those who do not stand independently with ADL can exclude because there is a possibility that a difference in walking style of healthy subjects appears. Because you use alcohol for disinfection, exclude those who are allergic to alcohol.
