Age is associated with lower postural capacity, as displayed by reduced center of pressure (COP) motion during prolonged standing in older adults. However, age is often confounded by physical activity (PA) behavior, i.e., older adults are less active. The purpose of this preliminary analysis was to determine if gait capacity or PA correlates with COP measures in older adults. Twenty older adults (aged 61–81 years) stood on a force plate for 5 minutes. Participants were instructed to stand as if waiting for a bus or train with arms at their side. Anterior-posterior (AP) and medial-lateral (ML) COP time series were computed. Total COP path length, average velocity, and range were calculated. In addition, participants underwent a 7-day 24-hour free living activity monitor (ActiGraph GT9X) wear protocol. Peak 1-, 30-, and 60-minute cadence (i.e., the average steps/min of the highest but not necessarily consecutive 1, 30, or 60 minutes within a day, respectively, and averaged across valid wear days) were compared to COP measures using simple linear regressions. COP path length displayed a positive linear association with peak 1-min cadence in the AP (p=.024, r=0.46) and ML (p=0.049, r=0.39) directions. No other correlations were observed for the other COP and PA measure comparisons (all p’s > 0.05). Older adults who reached the highest peak-1 min cadences displayed greater overall COP path length during prolonged standing. These findings suggest that individuals who display greater gait capacity also exhibit COP profiles that are representative of greater postural capacity.
