Sex Differences in Incline-Walking among Humans.

摘要: Previous research has shown that people tend to walk around the speed minimizes energy consumption when traveling a given distance. It further been men and women have different speeds minimize will choose slower activity itself is high-rate (e.g. carrying load). Here we investigate what do high rate walking activity, namely on an inclined surface. Fourteen (nine five women) walked at four level treadmill while their metabolic rate, kinematics core temperature were monitored. Following data collection, participants asked identify ‘preferred’ each of conditions. Cost transport (CoT) curves calculated for individual, delta between preferred ‘optimal’ calculated. People chose slightly level; there was minimal change in cost these speeds. Women absolutely incline than (P=0.06) had significantly larger deltas (P=0.02), thus choosing also showed significant relationship temperature, whereas did not. This consistent with other showing behavioral strategies body changes.
