Table 2. Pearson correlation coefficients between stair ascent and sit-to-stand parameters and a standardized measurement of multi-joint leg-extensor power in men and women aged 20–70 years (N = 91–95).

Leg-extensor power
Stair ascent Sensor-based analyses unloaded Total ascent duration -0.53
Ascent rise duration -0.50
Power (watt) 0.80
Duration-based estimation Power (watt) 0.80
Sensor-based analyses loaded (+10%) Total ascent duration -0.66
Ascent rise duration -0.62
Power 0.80
Duration-based estimation Power (watt) 0.88
Sit-to-stand Sensor-based analyses unloaded Total STS duration -0.44
Sit-to-stand transition duration -0.50
Power 0.79
Duration-based estimation Power (watt) 0.86
Sensor-based analyses loaded (+10%) Total STS duration -0.42
Sit-to-stand transition duration -0.41
Power 0.81
Duration-based estimation Power (watt) 0.85

All correlation coefficients are significant at P < 0.05. For correlation analyses with duration parameters, leg-extensor power (in watt) was divided by BM.
