Acta Physiologica | 2006

Metabolic cost, mechanical work, and efficiency during walking in young and older men

Omar S. Mian; Jeanette M. Thom; Luca P. Ardigò; Marco V. Narici; Alberto E. Minetti

Aim: To investigate mechanical work, efficiency, and antagonist muscle co‐activation with a view to better understand the cause of the elevated metabolic cost of walking (CW) in older adults.

Acta Physiologica | 2007

Gastrocnemius muscle–tendon behaviour during walking in young and older adults

Omar S. Mian; Jeanette M. Thom; Luca P. Ardigò; Alberto E. Minetti; Marco V. Narici

Aim: Age‐related differences in muscle architectural and tendon mechanical properties have been observed in vivo under static conditions and during single joint contractions. The aim of this study was to determine if there are age‐related differences in gastrocnemius fascicle–tendon interactions during a fundamental locomotor task – walking.
