Summary:Highlights • The current study observed individuals with no concussion history after high school. • Concussion history groups suffered less than 3 (mean) high school concussions. • No differences in gait variables or fall history between groups, within age. • Sustaining less than 3 concussions in adolescence has no observable effect on gait. • Comparing these results to professional athlete concussion history is ill advised.
