Age dependent differences in attenuation of vertical ground reaction force during a step descent

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the differences between older and younger adults in the attenuation of impact during descent from a step. Strategies that have been implicated in reducing either the magnitude of vertical ground reaction force (vertical GRF) or the time taken to reach th...
