Introduction Physical activity (PA), defined as any bodily movement produced by the skeletal muscles that requires an energy expenditure of more than 1.5 metabolic equivalents of task (METs),1 is an important modifiable factor that may attenuate the loss of physical function and performance related to aging.2 Over the past decades, numerous studies conducted in young (<40 years), middle-aged (40–59 years) or older adults (60+) demonstrated that higher levels of PA were associated with better...

On 22 March 2023, the Geroscience Translational Research & International Conference on Frailty and Sarcopenia Research (ICFSR) Task Force met in Toulouse, France to discuss avenues to foster the development of intrinsic capacity and frailty clinical trials under a geroscience perspective. A synthesis of these discussions and a set of recommendations are presented in this Meeting Report. The concepts of intrinsic capacity and frailty are central to understanding human aging.
