Summary:

The 400-meter walk test is a safe, valid, reliable, and inexpensive field assessment of cardiorespiratory fitness and function. It can be administered at maximal, safe sustainable pace in more active apparently healthy older adults as a measure of cardiorespiratory fitness or at usual walking speed as an assessment of physical function and potential mobility limitations in less physically fit, older adults and those who are frailer or have several chronic health conditions. It is easy to administer and exercise professionals can use results to better develop individualized exercise programs and to monitor program results and effectiveness.
