Guidance Summary

Power-oriented resistance training improves functional speed and independence outcomes beyond strength-only prescriptions in many older cohorts.

Top Interventions

  • power-oriented resistance training
  • adequate protein strategy
  • neuromuscular skill work

Monitoring Priorities

  • sit-to-stand speed
  • gait speed
  • jump or power proxy tests
  • functional task timing
