Abstract
The relationships between demographic and anthropometric indices and older adults' quantity and quality of ambulatory activity are uncertain. We examined the relationship between accelerometer-determined steps per day (quantity) and peak 30-min cadence (quality; mean steps per minute recorded for the 30 highest, but not necessarily consecutive, minutes in a day) in community-dwelling older adults relative to sex, age, and body mass index (BMI).
