Walking is the main means of locomotion. Locomotion is performed not only forward but also backward in daily life. However, there are few explanations of backward walking, compared to forward walking, in textbooks of motion analysis. In this study, previous studies of backward walking are reviewed, and the trajectories of center of pressure and electromyogram patterns assessed. The functions of the lower leg and the trunk in backward walking are discussed with reference to the results.
