Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Immediate gait trainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants assigned to this arm will begin Exoskeleton assisted gait training right away and will continue training for the first 6 months of the study.
Group II: Delayed gait trainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants assigned to this arm will not gait train for 6 months. They will engage in Exoskeleton assisted gait training for the last 6 months of the study.
