Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of types of shoes and distance travelled on oxygen saturation and walk in relation to smoking. Methods: To achieve this goal, the researcher divided 20 normal male adults into two groups: a smoking group (10) and a non-smoking group (10) and used a treadmill to have them walk in intervals of 3 days, a total of 4 times. Results: By analyzing their walk, the following results were obtained: oxygen saturation showed statistically significant results in both the smoking group and the non-smoking group. The smoking group showed significant results for left pace and significant results were achieved for setting foot and shaking in both the smoking group and the non-smoking group. In comparison of oxygen saturation between groups, there were significant results for 3km sneakers walk and 3 km slippers walk. There were significant results for width in 3 km sneakers walk, left and right pace in 3 km slippers walk, and setting foot in 1 km sneakers walk. Conclusion: In conclusion, in the smoking group changes in walk occur if the shoes are more unstable and the distance travelled becomes longer.
