This study investigated the relationship between physical activity, inactivity, function, and sleep in older adults with a frailty phenotype. A total of 184 pre-frail/frail were included. Physical inactive behavior, parameters assessed using wrist-worn accelerometer. Participants categorized into four groups based on their levels inactivity activity. The results showed that individuals lower had better body mean velocity regularity than those higher inactivity. Physically active exhibited...
