Sports Medicine
Sports Medicine bridges the gap between science and practice in the promotion of exercise and health, and in the scientific assessment, study and understanding of sports performance.
The German Research Foundation provided support for a series of workshops that took place in Potsdam, Freiburg, and Kassel between October 2013 and September 2014. International experts discussed current knowledge of how age affects motor performance throughout the lifespan and how exercise interventions could improve motor performance in older adults, delay the onset and progression of mobility disability, and promote healthy aging. To complement already existing physical activity guidelines, this themed issue of Sports Medicine contains systematic literature reviews and meta-analyses that provide evidence-based overviews of current knowledge concerning the efficacy of exercise interventions with a focus on seniors.
