This study compares two types of walking training for people with above-knee amputations. 40 adults aged 18-40 will be split into two groups: one focusing on specific impairments and the other on whole walking tasks. Both groups will practice for 10 days. The goal is to see which method improves walking speed, balance, and step patterns more.
