Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Obesity is associated with functional decline , altered spatiotemporal gait parameters (e.g. lower gait speed, shorter strides, and increased step width), and a significantly higher metabolic cost of walking compared to people with normal body weight. Obesity also negatively affects balance control.This study will investigate foot progression angle in adolescents related to their weight and category classification based on the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) growth charts.
