The study served to assess the effects of an 8-week resistance training program on walking ability in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). The authors hypothesized that following the 8-week training program, gait characteristics in persons with MS would become significantly more consistent with normal gait patterns than those that are viewed with people who are unimpaired.
