Comparisons of energy cost and economical walking speed at various gradients in healthy, active younger and older adults
Background/Objective: Oxygen consumption during walking per unit distance (Cw; mL/kg/m) is known to be greater for older adults than younger adults, although its underlying process is controversial. Methods: We measured the Cw values at six gait speeds from 30 m/min to 105 m/min on level ground and...
