This project investigates the metabolic cost of walking by directly measuring oxygen consumption in muscle fibers during dynamic contractions. It aims to connect muscle energetics with human walking dynamics, providing insights that could help reduce walking costs in the elderly and those with impairments.
The mechanisms underlying metabolic cost of walking are unclear.
This is important not only because they provide fundamental insight in human movement, but they are also essential to reduce increased cost of walking in the elderly and impaired.
To understand these mechanisms, it is required to know the link between energetics at the human level and the energetics at the muscle level.
Whereas the energetics at the human level is experimentally accessible, that at the muscle level is not.
