Key Points

Trekking poles significantly enhance muscle activation during the preparation phase of gait dynamics, improving balance and stability.
The analysis showed a noteworthy increase in muscle activation during walking, particularly affecting limb coordination after stroke rehabilitation.
Assessment of participant gait with trekking poles involved moment calculations that highlighted the benefits of added support for mobility.
These findings suggest that incorporating trekking poles may improve gait dynamics in post-stroke individuals, supporting further clinical use.
