Load Carriage Efficiency

Load Carriage Efficiency is a biomechanical performance metric that quantifies the energetic and mechanical effectiveness of an individual's movement while transporting external loads, distinguished from other movement efficiency measures by its specific focus on load-induced physiological and kinematic adaptations.
