Push-off Mechanics

Push-Off Mechanics is a biomechanical construct that characterizes the generation and modulation of propulsive forces during the late stance phase of gait, distinguished by the coordinated activation of plantarflexor muscles and the transfer of momentum through the foot–ground interface to facilitate forward progression.
