Participant baseline characteristics at the time of data collection. *Baseline percent propulsion represents the proportion of paretic propulsion impulse relative to the total propulsion impulse generated by both legs, such that 50 indicates perfect symmetry [9]. This metric has been used to classify impairment level in people post-stroke [46].
