Comparison of energy expenditure and substrate metabolism during overground and motorized treadmill running in Chinese middle-aged women

The purpose of this study was to compare differences of energy expenditure and substrate metabolism between motorized-treadmill and overground running in three different velocities in Chinese middle-aged women. In total, 74 healthy middle-aged women (age, 48 ± 4 years; height, 159.4 ± 4.9 cm; weight, 58.6 ± 6.7 kg; and body-mass index (BMI), 23.1 ± 2.7 kg/m 2 ) volunteered to participate in this study. Bioelectrical-impedance analysis was used...
