Reactive lower limb muscle function during walking plays a key role in balance recovery following tripping, and ultimately fall prevention. The objective of this study was to evaluate muscle and joint function in the recovery limb during balance recovery after trip-based perturbations during walking. Twenty-four healthy participants underwent gait analysis while walking at slow, moderate and fast speeds over level, uphill and downhill inclines. Trip perturbations were performed randomly during stance, and lower limb kinematics, kinetics, and muscle contribution to the acceleration of the whole-body centre of mass (COM) were computed pre- and post-perturbation in the recovery limb. Ground slope and walking speed had a significant effect on lower limb joint angles, net joint moments and muscle contributions to support and propulsion during trip recovery (p < 0.05). Specifically, increasing walking speed during trip recovery significantly reduced hip extension in the recovery limb and increased knee flexion, particularly when walking uphill and at higher walking speeds (p < 0.05). Gluteus maximus played a critical role in providing support and forward propulsion of the body during trip recovery across all gait speeds and ground inclinations. This study provides a mechanistic link between muscle action, joint motion and COM acceleration during trip recovery, and underscores the potential of increased walking speed and ground inclination to increase fall risk, particularly in individuals prone to falling. The findings of this study may provide guidelines for targeted exercise therapy such as muscle strengthening for fall prevention.
