The gait parameters, including step duration, stride length, cadence, walking time, and overall step pattern, were manually recorded under three different walking conditions: normal walking, limping, and walking while carrying weight. A quasi experimental within subject design was used with 30 healthy female participants aged 19–26 years from Viddyottama Girls Hostel, Ujjain. Gait parameters such as step length, stride length, cadence, walking time, and total steps were measured manually. The findings showed that limping caused the greatest changes in gait, while weight carrying produced smaller effects. The study highlights manual gait evaluation as a practical and low-cost method for gait analysis. Copyright@ International Science Community Association
