Cardiovascular response to brisk walking on different surfaces in an innovative senior playground: a randomized trial in older adults.

Brisk walking is a simple exercise for older adults. We aimed to assess the cardiovascular response to a short bout of brisk walking on walking loops in an innovative senior playground in Thailand. Twenty older adults were randomly assigned to brisk walking on artificial turf (AT group,  = 10) or an uneven surface (US group,  = 10).
