Low 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations are common among older adults and are associated with poorer physical performance and strength, but results from longitudinal studies have been inconsistent. The 25(OH)D threshold for physical performance and strength was determined, and both cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between 25(OH)D and physical performance and strength were examined, in men and women aged 7180 years from the Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study (n 2,641). Baseline serum 25(OH)D was measured in 19981999, and physical performance and strength were measured at baseline and at 2- and 4-year follow-up. Piecewise regression models were used to determine 25(OH)D thresholds. Linear regression and mixed models were used to examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations. The 25(OH)D thresholds were 7080 nmol/L for physical performance and 5570 nmol/L for strength. Participants with 25(OH)D 50 nmol/L had poorer physical performance at baseline and at 2- and 4-year follow-up than participants with 25(OH)D epsilon 75 nmol/L (P 0.01). Although physical performance and strength declined over 4 years of follow-up (P 0.0001), in general, the rate of decline was not associated with baseline 25(OH)D. Older adults with low 25(OH)D concentrations had poorer physical performance over 4 years of follow-up, but low 25(OH)D concentrations were not associated with a faster rate of decline in physical performance or strength.
