Key Points Question What is the effect of adding timing and coordination training to a standard strength and endurance program on mobility in community-dwelling older adults? Findings In this randomized clinical trial that included 249 older adults, treatment with either the standard program or the program enhanced with timing and coordination training resulted in improved gait speed. There was no difference between groups. Meaning These findings suggest that timing and coordination training may not yield additional benefit compared with a standard program to improve walking among older adults.
