Turn-and-Go

Rise, walk 3 m (10 ft), turn, walk back, and sit with control — timed as one movement. A functional-mobility tracker, never a fall cutoff.

Set up

Place a chair at one end and a marker 3 m (10 ft) away on a clear, marked path. Use your normal footwear and, if you normally use a walking aid, the same aid every time. Keep support and a helper within reach.

Turn direction (locked to your baseline — changing it starts a new baseline)

I used my normal walking aid

Familiarize with one walk at your usual pace, then record one timed try. Use the same turn direction on every retest.

Record your timed try

Tap Start, then stand, walk to the line, turn, walk back, and sit. Tap Done when you are fully seated again.

0.00

Abort for veering off the path, a grab for support, or near-loss of balance. Don't test during acute dizziness, new weakness or numbness, severe pain, or after a recent injurious fall without clinical guidance.
