A modification of the Margaria stair climb was used to assess stair-climbing power. participants were instructed to ascend a 12-step staircase as rapidly as possible, with ascent time recorded over the middle four steps (0.66 m) of the climb.

Participants were instructed to walk a 160-m flat course as fast as possible without running. Photoelectric cells and timers were used to determine time to the nearest 0.01 s. The faster of two trials was used to calculate walking speed (m/s).

To simulate daily activities such as carrying groceries or suitcases, participants carried a load equal to 20% of their body weight while walking a distance of 20 m as fast as possible on a flat course.
