  1. COM center of mass, TD touchdown of non-slipping foot after reactive stepping, vCOM anterior-posterior velocity of the COM, BOS base of support
  2. Intervals that do not include zero are statistically significant and in bold. Minimum hip height is expressed as a percentage of standing hip height
