While physical activity (PA) improves functions for activities of daily living, little is known of the association between meeting published PA Guidelines for Americans (PAGA) and meeting published physical function guidelines for maintaining independence. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between meeting the PAGA and meeting independence criteria on the Senior Fitness Tests (SFT). Older adults (N = 265) completed SFTs, assessing cardiorespiratory fitness, lower and upper body strength, mobility, and self-reported aerobic and resistance PA. Chi-square tests and logistic regressions examined associations between meeting PAGA and SFT independence criteria. A significant relationship was found between meeting aerobic PAGA and cardiorespiratory and upper body SFT criteria; a significant relationship was found between meeting resistance PAGA and upper body strength criteria. Although research suggests that PAGA are effective in maintaining fitness in older adults when PA is structured and monitored, mixed results were found for self-reported PA and SFT criteria.

:尽管体育锻炼(PA)改善了日常生活活动的功能,但人们对满足已发布的《美国PA指南》(PAGA)与满足已发布的维持独立性的身体功能指南之间的关联知之甚少。这项研究的目的是检验满足PAGA和达到高级体能测验(SFT)的独立性标准之间的关联。老年人(N = 265)完成了SFT,评估了心肺健康状况,上下体强度,活动性以及自我报告的有氧和抵抗力PA。卡方检验和逻辑回归检验了满足PAGA和SFT独立性标准之间的关联。在满足有氧PAGA与心肺和上身SFT标准之间发现了显着的关系。在满足抵抗力PAGA和上身强度标准之间发现了显着的关系。尽管研究表明,当对PA进行结构化和监测时,PAGA可以有效地保持老年人的健康,但对于自我报告的PA和SFT标准,发现了好坏参半的结果。
