English term or phrase: walking on the level
It 's about a patient who feels breathless not walking uphill, but walking regularly on flat grounds. I cannot come up with a suitable expression. Does "walking on the level" correctly express the idea of normal walking, neither uphill nor downhill.

Other [medical] expressions for it most welcome!
