The SKyRoCKeT Study is looking for 360 healthy young people aged 6 to 20 years old who can walk without assistance. This observational study aims to better understand how walking intensity (measured by 'cadence' or steps per minute) relates to age and energy use (measured by 'MET' or metabolic equivalent). There are no interventions or medications being tested; instead, researchers will collect information about your walking patterns. The main goal is to create a more accurate way to measure walking intensity for different ages, which could help in understanding physical activity levels. We are not currently aware of the study's recruitment status.

Study design

This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 360 participants. It is not a randomized or blinded study.

What's involved

You would participate in three visits over a period of up to three months, plus an at-home free-living protocol. During these visits, your cadence (steps per minute) will be measured.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Your cadence will be measured over the course of the study period, which is up to three months.
