The purpose of this experiment was to compare the energy expenditure and the physiological response among two groups by percent body fat(group A: 30-35%body fat, B: 35-40%body fat) to walking and running at several equivalnet speeds. Subjects in group A and B followed A group(mean¡ÓSD, age; 24.0¡Ó0.4yrs, body fat; 32.3¡Ó0.7), and B group (age; 25.2¡Ó0.7yrs, body fat; 36.7¡Ó0.9). The walking and running protocol consisted of treadmill speeds for five min at each of the follwing speeds: 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0 km£»hr-1. The obtained data reveal In group A, the rate of oxygen
consumption and energy expenditure was higher during walking compared to running ate treadmill speeds .6.6km£» hr-1. In group B, the rate of oxygen consumption and energy expenditure was higher during walking compared to running ate treadmill speeds .6.8km£»hr-1. Heart rates and respiratory exchange ratio were higher at treadmill speeds .5.8 in group A and .5.5 in group B. these findings demonstrated that a difference of percent body fat in obese women have no large effect on energy efficiency of walking, but walking within speeds 6.5~7.0km/hr resulted in rates of energy expenditure that were as high or higher than jogging at the same speeds even though the relative stress was greater during walking.
