Practicing Tai Chi had lower energy metabolism than walking but similar health benefits in terms of aerobic fitness, resting energy expenditure, body composition and self-perceived physical health

Highlights • This 3-arm cluster randomized controlled trial provided evidence that, under the same frequency and duration of 12-week practices, both Tai Chi and self-paced brisk walking had significant effects on improving aerobic capacity, body composition, and self-perceived physical health. • Tai...

description Highlights • This 3-arm cluster randomized controlled trial provided evidence that, under the same frequency and duration of 12-week practices, both Tai Chi and self-paced brisk walking had significant effects on improving aerobic capacity, body composition, and self-perceived physical health. • Tai Chi had higher effect than walking on improving rest oxygen consumption and kilocalorie expenditure. • Taichi had significant effect on improving self-perceived mental health compared with control. • Practicing Tai Chi consumed a smaller amount of energy than walking. Thus, Tai Chi may be a better choice for individuals who are concerned about exercise intensity and safety, particularly those who are less able to perform more vigorous exercises.
