Abnormal muscle synergies during sit-to-stand (STS) transitions have been observed post-stroke, which are associated with deteriorated lower-limb function and mobility. Although exoskeletons have been used in restoring lower-limb function, their effects on muscle synergies and lower-limb motor recov...
