Walking Ankle isoKinetic Exercise
Sponsor: University Hospital, Limoges
Summary
This study is a multi-center, interventional, experimental, prospective, controlled and randomized study. We propose a reeducation protocol based on an early over-solicitation of the ankle dorsiflexor muscles to promote their "awakening", limit the loss of strength associated with the functional loss and thus allow to reach a more effective walking activity. This should encourage social participation following discharge from the hospital. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of this 6 weeks program on walking speed.

Conditions
Interventions
Rehabilitation program 1
Both groups will benefit from a conventional rehabilitation treatment including a repetitive walking. In addition to this conventional rehabilitation, the experimental group will receive an ankle isokinetic program, 5 times a week, for 6 weeks (with a minimum of 25 sessions)
Rehabilitation program 2
Both groups will benefit from a conventional rehabilitation treatment including a repetitive walking. The control group will have a supplement in conventional rehabilitation equal to the additional time of the experimental group.
