Metabolically unhealthy overweight/obesity and normal weight, but not metabolically healthy overweight/obesity, accelerated frailty progression as compared with metabolically healthy normal weight. Regardless of obesity status, transitions from healthy metabolic status to unhealthy metabolic status accelerated frailty progression as compared with stable metabolically healthy normal weight. Our findings highlight the important role of metabolic status in frailty progression and recommend the stratified management of obesity based on metabolic status.
