The Oxygen Consumption and Metabolic Cost of Walking and Running in Adults With Achondroplasia
The disproportionate body mass and leg length of Achondroplasic individuals may affect their net oxygen consumption (V͘O2) and metabolic cost (C) when walking at running compared to those of average stature (controls). The aim of this study was to measure submaximal V͘O2 and C during a range of set...
