Navigating public environments requires adjustments to one's walking patterns to avoid stationary and moving obstacles. It is known that physical inactivity induces alterations in motor capacities, but the impact of inactivity on anticipatory locomotor adjustments (ALA) has not been studied. The purpose of the present exploratory study was to compare ALAs and related muscle co-contraction during a pedestrian circumvention task between active (AA) and inactive young adults (IA).

Background/objectives: Measuring the physical functioning of older hip fracture patients using wearables is desirable, with physical activity monitoring offering a promising approach. However, it is first important to assess physical activity in healthy older adults. This study quantifies physical functioning with physical activity parameters and assesses those parameters in community-dwelling older adults.
