This study will use an experimental quantitative research design. Participants will serve as their own control with a metabolic assessment by open circuit spirometry when walking on the Alter G treadmill for less than ten minutes per trial at 3 mph while supporting their entire body mass. Randomly assigned trials at 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of body mass will be conducted under steady state conditions. All trials will be conducted in one session.
