Energetic expenditure during walking and load-carriage in humans. Dataset from EVOBREATH 2015

This dataset contains records of an experimental research project on energetic expenditure during walking and carrying burdens in a sample of humans, of both sexes, aged from 23 to 50 years old. The dataset also contains some anthropometrical and body composition data of the subjects. Metabolic rates were also recorded during the different tests, performed at the BioEnergy and Motion Lab (LabBioEM) of National Research Center on Human Evolution (CENIEH, Spain) in 2015. Main outcomes and findings of the experimental project were published in several works (Prado-Nóvoa et al., 2019; Vidal-Cordasco et al., 2017; Zorrilla-Revilla et al., 2017). The list of references and the description of recorded variables are included in the data and document files.
