Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
High frequency
Individuals will receive up to 18 visits of high-intensity gait training and activity coaching over 6 weeks
high-intensity gait training
Individuals will perform up to 40 minutes of walking practice during 60 minute sessions while targeting heart rates of at least 70% heart rate reserve.
Physical activity coaching
Individuals will receive feedback on the minutes of walking activity performed on non-training days and provided coaching strategies to increase this metric.
Low frequency
Individuals will receive up to 18 visits of high-intensity gait training and activity coaching over 12 weeks
high-intensity gait training
Individuals will perform up to 40 minutes of walking practice during 60 minute sessions while targeting heart rates of at least 70% heart rate reserve.
Physical activity coaching
Individuals will receive feedback on the minutes of walking activity performed on non-training days and provided coaching strategies to increase this metric.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Age 18-85
* Weight \< 350 pounds
* Able to follow 3-step commands
* Able to ambulate with self-selected gait speeds between 0.10-1.0 m/s without physical assistance, but with below knee bracing and/or assistive device as needed
* Lower extremity Fugl-Meyer \< 34
* Medical clearance to participate
Exclusion Criteria
* Uncontrolled cardiopulmonary or metabolic disease that limits exercise participation, active heterotopic ossification, recurrent history of lower extremity fractures, previous orthopedic or other peripheral or central neurologic injury that may impair locomotor activities such that, in the judgement of the PI, could compromise the safety of the participant, limit the ability to complete the study, or compromise the objectives of the study.
* Currently participating in other physical therapy
* \>50 units of Botox in the lower extremity OR in the lower extremity, but above the knee if the participant wears an ankle-foot-orthosis (AFO) within the past three months
