Note: Model 1 includes TLAC, Model 2 includes ASTP, Model 3 includes TLAC and ASTP, and Model 4 includes TLAC and ASTP adjusted for total volume. All models are adjusted for age, sex, race, smoking history, height, weight, and history of cardiovascular disease, stroke, peripheral neuropathy, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, and lower extremity arthritis pain. ASTP = Active-to-Sedentary Transition Probability; RPE = rating of perceived exertion; SPPB = Short Physical Performance Battery; TLAC = total log activity counts.
