“…Compared to running on a motorized treadmill (MT), which allows an individual to run on a belt at different speeds determined by an external motor, NMTs have been shown to better mimic overground locomotion, allowing individuals to voluntarily manipulate speed, gait, and pace (De Witt, Lee, Wilson, & Hagan, 2009;Fullenkamp, Matthew Laurent, & Campbell, 2015;Stevens et al, 2015). Recent investigations have examined NMT exercise on anaerobic performance (Gonzalez et al, 2013;Highton, Lamb, Twist, & Nicholas, 2012;Mangine et al, 2014), maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2max ) (Bacon, Carter, Ogle, & Joyner, 2013;Morgan, Laurent, & Fullenkamp, 2016), cardiometabolic demand (Edwards, Tofari, Cormack, & Whyte, 2017;Li, Xue, Hong, Song, & He, 2020;Schoenmakers, Crisell, & Reed, 2020), and muscular strength (Franks, Brown, Coburn, Kersey, & Bottaro, 2012). However, there is minimal research that understands exercise economy (EE) and neuromuscular activity while using an NMT.…”
