Abstract
Objective The purposes of this study were three‐fold: (i) to describe handgrip strength in older individuals aged ≥60 years in Colombia; (ii) to identify sex‐specific and age‐specific muscle weakness cut‐off points in older adults; and (iii) to determine the odds of adverse events for each of the intrinsic capacity domains for individuals with handgrip strength greater than the muscle weakness cut‐off points, as compared with their weaker...
