Patient will practice 2 blocks of Tibialis Anterior muscle contraction trials (holding for 10 seconds per trial with 10 seconds of rest, 20 trials per block with 1 minute 40 seconds of rest in between the blocks) with the heel contacts the floor for a total of 40 trials.~In Bobath therapy, we will use exercises as per Bobath guidelines for management of stroke patients to improve the lower extremity function, balance and gait ability.
