Inclusion criteria

* Persons diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. * The ability to walk for 6 minutes continuously with or without assistive device. * The ability to read, understand and sign a consent form so that they are able to understand the study we are doing * Above the age of 18

Exclusion criteria

* Any cardiopulmonary, orthopedic, or non-MS neurologic disease as we are only examining the effects of MS and need to rule out the impact of other conditions * Report of a recent exacerbation. Rationale: the impact of the rationale can interfere with the impact of the independent variables

As registered. Criteria can change, so ask the trial team or your neurologist.

About this trial

In the sponsor's words

Over 90% of persons with MS (pwMS) complain of difficulty with walking. High intensity interval gait training (HIIGT), where persons alternate brief periods of walking at high speeds with periods of rest has been found to improve walking in other neurologic diagnoses. However its impact on pwMS is not known. Most gait training in MS is done continuously at a slower pace. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of HIIGT to traditional Moderate Intensity Continuous Gait Training (MICGT) in pwMS.
