Physiological responses, rating of perceived exertion, and stride characteristics during walking on dry land and walking in water, both with and without a water current.

摘要

These observations suggest that half the speed should be required to work at the similar metabolic costs and RPE while walking in water with a current, compared with walking on dry land. Furthermore, it was suggested that the physiological responses and RPE would be higher while walking in water with a current than without.
