Preferred Barefoot Step Frequency is Influenced by Factors Beyond Minimizing Metabolic Rate
Humans tend to increase their step frequency in barefoot walking, as compared to shod walking at the same speed. Based on prior studies and the energy minimization hypothesis we predicted that people make this adjustment to minimize metabolic cost. We performed an experiment quantifying barefoot wal...
