Improving Walking Ability in People With Neurologic  Conditions: A Theoretical Framework for Biomechanics-Driven Exercise Prescription
The purpose of this paper is to discuss how knowledge of the biomechanics of walking can be used to inform the prescription of resistance exercises for people with mobility limitations. Muscle weakness is a key physical impairment that limits walking in commonly occurring neurologic conditions such as cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, and stroke. Few randomized trials to date have shown conclusively that strength training improves walking in people living with these conditions. This appears to be because (1) the most important muscle groups for forward propulsion when walking have not been targeted for strengthening,...

A SMART Approach to Improve Cognition in Chronic Stroke
To examine the effects of a cognitive training called Strategic Memory Advanced Reasoning Training (SMART) on cognition and daily life in adults with chronic stroke. Deficits in abstract reasoning can impact strategic thinking and problem solving in daily life for stroke survivors. The top-down SMART program teaches executive function strategies of strategic attention, integrated reasoning, and innovation to improve daily functioning.
