Association of ‘Tortoise’ and ‘Hare’ movement behavior patterns with cardiometabolic health, body composition, and functional fitness in older adults
Geriatric Nursing(2024)
摘要
We investigated the association of movement behavior patterns with cardiometabolic health, body composition, and functional fitness in older adults. A total of 242 older adults participated of this cross-sectional study. Sedentary time, light physical activity (LPA) and moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), steps/day, and step cadence were assessed by accelerometry. The movement behavior patterns were derived by principal component analysis. Cardiometabolic health was defined by a metabolic syndrome score (cMetS). Body composition was determined by appendicular lean mass/body mass index (ALM/BMI). Functional fitness was assessed by a composite z-score from the Senior Fitness Test battery. Two patterns were identified: ‘Tortoise’ (low sedentary time, high LPA and steps/day) and ‘Hare’ (high MVPA, steps/day, and step cadence). ‘Tortoise’ and ‘Hare’ were associated with better cMetS. ‘Hare’ was positively associated with ALM/BMI and Functional Fitness. While ‘Tortoise’ and ‘Hare’ were associated with better cMetS, only ‘Hare’ was associated with better ALM/BMI and functional fitness.
