Excerpt
Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) have low levels of muscle strength and aerobic capacity regardless of age. It has been suggested that individuals with DS become more limited as they mature and may become severely limited in adulthood because of early aging. However, developmental changes in muscle strength and aerobic capacity have not been investigated in this population.
