| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Due to advancement in technology, we have seen a shift in the modern work environment. A<br/>notable surge has been seen in the percentage of people with jobs requiring prolonged sitting.<br/>There is a strong link between sedentary behavior and health risks down the road. Gait of a person<br/>is also linked to sedentary behavior which is believed to be significantly affected by prolonged<br/>inactivity. Gait asymmetry can be a very good indicator of overall physical health and that is why<br/>it used extensively to assess the physical health of subjects.<br/>Due to prolonged sitting, tightening of certain muscles, reduction in core strength and reduction<br/>in joint flexibility can lead to various Gait abnormalities. Our study is designed to compare the<br/>Gait asymmetry of physically active individuals with those of inactive individuals. We took into<br/>account various gait related features to find out the gait asymmetry between the right and left limb.<br/>We then also assessed the impact of exercise on gait symmetry and introduce flexibility training<br/>to the Sedentary group. Sedentary group performed Flexibility Training for 4 weeks every day.<br/>The exercises were performed thrice every day for 30 minutes. Results were substantial in<br/>supporting the link between sedentary behavior and increased gait asymmetry. Results also showed<br/>improvements in gait symmetry using flexibility training exercises. |
