The Energetic Pathway to Mobility Loss: An Emerging New Framework for Longitudinal Studies on Aging

The capacity to walk independently is a central component of independent living. Numerous large and well‐designed longitudinal studies have shown that gait speed, a reliable marker of mobility, tends to decline with age and as a consequence of chronic disease. This decline in performance is of utmos...
