Applying the cost of generating force hypothesis to uphill running
Historically, several different approaches have been applied to explain the metabolic cost of uphill human running. Most of these approaches result in unrealistically high values for the efficiency of performing vertical work during running uphill, or are only valid for running up steep inclines. The purpose of this study was to reexamine the metabolic cost of uphill running, based upon our und...
متن کاملEnergetics of bipedal running. I. Metabolic cost of generating force.
Similarly sized bipeds and quadrupeds use nearly the same amount of metabolic energy to run, despite dramatic differences in morphology and running mechanics. It has been shown that the rate of metabolic energy use in quadrupedal runners and bipedal hoppers can be predicted from just body weight and the time available to generate force as indicated by the duration of foot-ground contact. We tes...
متن کاملthe calculation of the uphill energy cost of running from the level energy cost of running in a heterogeneous group of mountain ultra endurance runners
ultra-endurance mountain running has become extremely popular in recent years, and the energy cost is one of the factors that influence the final performance. the aim of this study was to determine if the energy cost of uphill running (uphill cr) can be calculated from level cr (energy cost of running in mlo2.kg-1.mn-1) in a heterogeneous group of mountain ultra-endurance runners using the di p...
متن کاملA Paradigm of Uphill Running
The biomechanical management of bioenergetics of runners when running uphill was investigated. Several metabolic and mechanical variables have been studied simultaneously to spread light on the locomotory strategy operated by humans for effective locomotion. The studied variables were: heart rate, heart rate variability, oxygen intake and blood lactate, metabolic cost, kinematics, ground reacti...
متن کاملThe cost of running uphill: linking organismal and muscle energy use in guinea fowl (Numida meleagris).
Uphill running requires more energy than level running at the same speed, largely due to the additional mechanical work of elevating the body weight. We explored the distribution of energy use among the leg muscles of guinea fowl running on the level and uphill using both organismal energy expenditure (oxygen consumption) and muscle blood flow measurements. We tested each bird under four condit...
