Quantifying Cause-Effect Relations Between Walking Speed, Propulsive Force, and Metabolic Cost

2021-10-19

Abstract excerpt

Walking speed is a useful surrogate for health status across the population. Walking speed appears to be governed in part by propulsive force (F P ) generated during push-off and simultaneously optimized to minimize metabolic cost. However, no study to our knowledge has established empirical cause-effect relations between F P , walking speed, and metabolic cost, even in young adults. To overcome the potential link...
