The Energetics of Maintaining the Lateral Balance Are Terrain-Specific; a Normal Lookahead Significantly Reduces Active Balance Maintenance Work
2024-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Humans must actively control their lateral balance through frontal plane work or adjusting lateral foot placement. With constant muscle efficiency and considering the energetic consequences of Center of Mass (COM) work variability, we estimated the metabolic cost of lateral balance maintenance and compared it with the Workman model. Like the Workman model, we found that lateral balance energetics were mainly assoc...
