Cadence and Intensity Across the Adult Lifespan
In Brief
An observational study evaluating treadmill walking for Aging and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 260 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine and link cadence (the number of steps taken in a minute) to the intensity of physical activity (e.g. low-, moderate- and vigorous-intensity) in adults (21-85 years old). The investigators anticipate that cadence will be a good indicator of exercise intensity. Identifying how cadence relates to activity intensity will allow for physical activity guidelines to be communicated to the public in a manner that is more accessible to the lay person.
