In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a frame assembly, a sensor, and an electric stimulator. The frame is configured to be removably coupled to a portion of a limb such that the portion of the limb is substantially enveloped by the frame. The sensor is operably coupled to the frame and is configured to produce a first signal associated with a gait characteristic at a first time, and a second signal associated with the gait characteristic at a second time, after the first time. The first time and the second time define a time period therebetween. The electric stimulator is removably coupled to the frame and is in electrical communication with the sensor and an electrode assembly. The electrode assembly is in electrical communication with a portion of a neuromuscular system of the limb when the frame is coupled thereto and is configured to receive the first signal from the sensor substantially at the first time and the second signal from the sensor substantially at the second time. Based at least in part on the gait characteristic at the first time, the electric stimulator is configured to send a third signal to the electrode assembly substantially at the first time operable to cause the electrode assembly to provide an electric stimulation to the portion of the neuromuscular system of the limb substantially during the time period.
