LINCOLN, Nebraska, July 23 (TNSjou) -- The University of Nebraska Lincoln campus issued the following news release:
As people age, walking becomes more difficult, and the energy needed to walk increases, as well.
On a 10-minute walk, for example, a healthy young adult consumes less energy than the calorie content of one slice of bread. As the adult ages, however, that 10-minute walk becomes more arduous as their body becomes less energy efficient.
