Equipment

Equipment is a property of the movement and is authored, never derived from the evidence corpus (docs/research/round2/ROUND2_KNOWN_CORRECTIONS.md §1). This option resolves to no catalogue exercise, so nothing has authored it yet.

Level and prerequisites

No row states a level or a prerequisite for this option.

Progression and regression

No row states how to make this option harder or easier.

Who should not do this

The papers behind this option report nothing on contraindications, which is not the same as saying there are none.

Setting, as the studies used it

No row describes the setting.

What the papers compared it with
  • Tai Chi — a paper measured this option against it
    “Tai Chi was compared against control and found to reduce falls” · Emily C. McLaughlin, Rasha El-Kotob, J. Chaput et al. (2020) · 10.1139/apnm-2020-0279

A paper measuring one option against another does not make the two interchangeable, and it does not say which to choose. These are listed as what the papers did, and nothing here proposes a substitution.
