Sažetak
The aim of this study was to determine the difference between the energy consumption between the normal step length in walking on the rise and energy consumption in a shortened or prolonged length of steps in walking on the rise. The measured values of energy consumption in walking on a rising slope 12% rate of 5km/h, for a period of 10 minutes, 20% shorter stride length than normal and 20% increased length of steps differ from energy consumption at normal walking stride length. Based on the results of t-test can reject the hypothesis that changes in the length and frequency of steps will not affect the increase in energy consumption while walking on the rise. In line with this, the results of this study suggest that the most cost-effective steps to walk normal length.
