Preferred condition
The time needed to complete the TUG test did not differ among groups. Furthermore, the parameters: double support time and cadence were similar among groups, while gait speed and step length revealed a significant group difference with a post-hoc difference between young and older adults (gait speed, r = 0.47, p = 0.010; step length, r = 0.41, p = 0.030). This shows that young participants walked faster by taking longer steps than the older ones (Table
