Dr. Garry Killgore (President/Founder of AQx) along with his associates Sarah Coste, Susan O'Meara, and Christina Konnecke will be published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. Their article is titled "A comparison of the physiological exercise intensity differences between shod and barefoot sub-maximal deep-water running at the same cadence," and is expected to be out in the next few months. Their study proved that our AQx Aquatic Training Shoe increases energy consumption (caloric expenditure and oxygen consumption) over running barefoot in the water and offers a very similar response, and in fact, slightly higher energy consumption to what is typically found during land-based running.
More information will be posted when the article is published.
