High-incline walking is a relatively new trend with little comparative information. This study compared physiological and psychological differences between high-incline walking at 20% grade (HIW) and level-grade jogging (LGJ) at isocaloric intensities in young adults. Twenty-two participants (M = 11, F = 11) aged 19-31 years completed the study.

- Multiple studies suggest a link between physical activity, spatial skills, and the olfactory system, but findings remain inconsistent.
- The research involved 236 participants (83 athletes) to compare how athletes and non-athletes perform in visual-spatial, olfactory-spatial, and olfactory-semantic tasks using modified Corsi Block Tapping Tests.
- Results indicated that athletes performed worse in certain spatial and olfactory tasks compared to non-athletes, highlighting a gender effect favoring men and suggesting that different cognitive processes may be at play in sports practice affecting these skills.
