| Research Abstract |
Explosive force and contractile rate of force development (RFD) decline with ageing. Therefore, recent recommendations aimed at reducing the risk of physical dependency in older adults have suggested that strength training programs should be designed to maximize muscle power. In this study, measurements of explosive force and RFD were reliable in patients with dementia, and knee extension force was found to be a predictor of the ability to perform activities of daily living.
