Claim One:
1. A method comprising: positioning a human patient in a training device, the patient having a neurologically derived paralysis in a portion of the patient's body, the training device being configured to assist with physical training that is configured to induce neurological signals in the portion of the patient's body having the paralysis, the patient having a spinal cord with at least one selected spinal circuit that has a first stimulation threshold representing a minimum amount of stimulation required to activate the at least one selected spinal circuit, and a second stimulation threshold representing an amount of stimulation above which the at least one selected spinal circuit is fully activated and adding the induced neurological signals has no additional effect on the at least one selected spinal circuit, the induced neurological signals being below the first stimulation threshold and insufficient to activate the at least one selected spinal circuit; and applying electrical stimulation to a portion of a spinal cord of the patient, the electrical stimulation being below the second stimulation threshold such that the at least one selected spinal circuit is at least partially activatable by the addition of at least one of (a) a second portion of the induced neurological signals, and (b) supraspinal signals.
