Walking net $$\dot{V}$$ O2 rises with advancing age in older women: where to go from here?

ConclusionThese data support the premise that, in older women, walking net\(\dot{V}\)O2 rises with advancing age, and additionally, the RTD:MVC ratio and PFROM are independent correlates of non-graded net\(\dot{V}\)O2. Exercise interventions with a high degree of training specificity including explosive, velocity-based elements may promote independent mobility in older women.
