Abstract
Podium presentation reporting the completed six-week results of a lateral stepping training intervention in fourteen older adults (65+): the intervention significantly decreased step-width variability, with the effect retained six weeks after completion, while variability of stride-time, stance-time, and step-length showed a decreasing (non-significant) trend. Completed, full-results follow-up of the preliminary findings first presented at the 2018 Conference in Human Movement Variability.
