TABLE 2.
Coefficients of the elastic net model for selected variables contributing to the biological age (FitAge).
| FitAge coefficients | |
|---|---|
| Variable | Coefficient (SDs) |
| TUG time | 2.23 |
| Handgrip strength | −1.98 |
| 6MWT distance | −1.11 |
| Fast walking 10MWT time | 0.95 |
| 4SST time | 0.23 |
| Quadriceps strength | −0.19 |
Abbreviations: SDs, standard deviations; TUG, timed up and go test; 6MWT, 6-min walk test; 10MWT, 10-m walk test; 4SST, four square step test. Coefficients indicate the standardized weight of each motor test in the construction of the biological/fitness age. Coefficients equal to zero indicate no contribution to the biological aging measure.
