The Claim

In healthy Chinese adults aged 18–45, daily walking volume does not differ significantly between men and women, despite differences in body composition, muscle strength, and lower limb endurance between genders.

These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.

Description
1 study reviewed
In plain English

Among healthy Chinese adults aged 18 to 45, men and women walk the same amount each day, even though their body composition, muscle strength, and leg endurance differ.

See the scientific wording

In healthy Chinese adults aged 18–45, there is no significant difference in daily walking volume between men and women, despite observed gender differences in body composition, muscle strength, and lower limb endurance.

Why this might work

People walk the same amount each day because their bodies adjust how much they move based on daily energy needs, not on how strong or fat they are. Whether someone is stronger or has more body fat, their brain and nervous system regulate walking to match what is needed to get through the day.

  1. Study: Analysis of Body Composition, Muscle Strength, and Lower Limb Endurance Based on Walking Volume in Chinese Adults

    The study found that men and women in China walked about the same number of steps each day, even though men were stronger and women had more body fat — so the claim is correct.
