To examine the effects of increased strength on mechanical work, the metabolic cost of transport (Cost), and mechanical efficiency (ME) during running. Fourteen physically active men (22.0 ± 2.0 years, 79.3 ± 11.1 kg) were randomized to a strength-training group (SG, n = 7), who participated in a ma...
