Question

What percent of the gait cycle do you have double stance support?

A. 5%
B. 10%
C. 15%
D. 20%

Answer 1

Double stance support in the gait cycle makes up approximately 20% of the total cycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the gait cycle, double stance support refers to the period of time when both feet are in contact with the ground.

Double stance support occurs during two phases of the gait cycle: initial contact and terminal stance.

This adds up to approximately 20% of the gait cycle, which means that option D is the correct answer.
