Unadjusted and adjusted association [odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs)] between cardiovascular health metrics and performance on the 5-repetition chair-stand test better than gender-specific median values (i.e., <7.75 and <7.43 s for women and men, respectively).

	Unadjusted Odds Ratio (95% CI)	Adjusted Odds Ratio* (95% CI)
Age	0.94 (0.93–0.94)	0.94 (0.93–0.95)
Gender (male)	1.26 (1.15–1.38)	1.46 (1.31–1.62)
Non smoking	1.15 (1.00–1.32)	1.29 (1.12–1.48)
Healthy diet	1.28 (1.15–1.41)	1.01 (0.90–1.14)
Physical activity	1.40 (1.27–1.53)	1.37 (1.23–1.52)
Ideal body mass index	1.88 (1.72–2.06)	1.46 (1.31–1.63)
Ideal blood pressure	2.00 (1.87–2.19)	1.07 (0.96–1.20)
Ideal total blood cholesterol	1.21 (1.10–1.34)	0.83 (0.74–1.01)
No diabetes	1.99 (1.67–2.37)	1.22 (1.01–1.48)

^*Simultaneously adjusted for age, gender, and the seven cardiovascular health metrics.
