Walking cadence as a measure of activity intensity and impact on functional capacity for prefrail and frail older adults. by Daniel S Rubin, Anthony Hung, Emi Yamamoto, Donald Hedeker, David E Conroy, Megan Huisingh-Scheetz, Jennifer S Brach, Nancy W Glynn, Margaret K Danilovich

“…Walking cadence has been suggested as a measure of activity intensity; however, it remains uncertain if prefrail and frail older adults can increase their walking cadence and if doing so leads to improvements in functional capacity. We aimed to determine if cadence can be increased and if this leads to improvement in functional capacity in prefrail and frail older adults. …”
