Reciprocal Associations Between Trajectories of Physical Activity and Physical Function Among Older Women: Findings From the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health

There are reciprocal relationships between PF and PA; higher levels of PA promote better PF, and higher PF may help slow the decline in PA. Although rates of decline in PF show little variation with PA in women during their 80s, habitually high PA confers considerable benefits, contributing to additional years of healthy life.

Abstract

There are reciprocal relationships between PF and PA; higher levels of PA promote better PF, and higher PF may help slow the decline in PA. Although rates of decline in PF show little variation with PA in women during their 80s, habitually high PA confers considerable benefits, contributing to additional years of healthy life.
