Summary

This study looks at whether simple physical tests like stair climbing, walking, and standing up from a chair are reliable and accurate for people with obesity. Researchers will test 55 adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, repeating the tests a week apart to check consistency. The goal is to give doctors practical, low-cost ways to assess physical function without expensive equipment.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could give doctors simple, low-cost tools to assess physical function in people with obesity, helping guide treatment and monitor progress.
What could go wrong
