Walking around the preferred speed: examination of metabolic, perceptual, spatiotemporal and stability parameters by Lina Majed (7485380)

“…Results indicated a significant main effect of speed on all studied variables. While metabolic, perceptual and spatiotemporal values were sensitive to the smallest change in speed (i.e., 0.5 km·h⁻¹⁾, a significant increase in the rate of carbohydrate oxidation and decrease in % fat oxidation were only observed at speeds above PWS. …”

Increased footwear comfort is associated with improved running economy – a systematic review and meta‐analysis by K. Van Alsenoy (21259700)

“…The most comfortable footwear is associated with a reduction in oxygen consumption (MD: −2.06 mL.kg⁻¹.min⁻¹, 95%CI: −3.71, −0.42, <i>P</i> = 0.01) while running at a set submaximal speed. …”
