Retirement and Physical Activity: The Opportunity of a Lifetime or the Beginning of the End?

abstract：:The decline of walking performance is a key determinant of morbidity among older adults. Healthy older adults have been shown to have a 15-20% lower walking economy compared with young adults. However, older adults who run for exercise have a higher walking economy compared with older adults who walk for exercise. Yet...
