Effects of sedentary behaviour and long-term regular Tai Chi exercise on dynamic stability control during gait initiation in older women

Background: Sedentary behaviour has been associated with an increased risk of falls among older adults. Although gait initiation (GI) is a promising tool used to assess fall risk, it has yet to be quantitatively evaluated for dynamic stability in sedentary populations. Tai Chi exercise is believed t...
