The goal of this observational study is to assess movement in individuals with Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) and Type 2 (DM2) using digital biomarker tools. The long-term aim of this study is to incorporate these outcomes into clinical trials of DM1 and DM2 therapies. Participants will complete a series of assessments that allow for researchers to measure hand myotonia and walking quality, including a Video Hand Opening Test (VHOT), grip strength, 10 meter walk/run test, 6 minute walk test, Timed Up and Go (TUG), Motor Function Measures-32 (MFM-32) test, and more. These assessments may be recorded to detect and map participants motion and walking patterns. Several patient reported outcome (PROs) questionnaires will also be recorded. Participants may also be asked to monitor exercise and sleep activity at home using an Actigraph wearable device. This study is divided into 2 parts: Part A consists of a single visit. Part B consists of a 1-year longitudinal study with 3 clinical follow-up visits.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Video Hand Opening Time (VHOT) | With the use of wearable devices, the participant will be asked to open their hand from a fully fisted position as quickly as possible. This assessment will be recorded with a camera as well. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Grip Strength | Requires a participant to squeeze a device as hard as possible, while the research team measures how much force is produced. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Motor Function Measures (MFM-32) | This is a motor function test to assess how well a participant can walk, move, and use their hands. The test includes tasks such as reaching and picking up objects, putting out hands, and taking a step. | Baseline through month 12 |
| 10 Meter Walk/Run Test | From a standing start, the participant is asked to go 10 meters as quickly as possible, either by walking or running. Ankle braces and orthotics may be used. | Baseline through month 12 |
| 6 Minute Walk Test | Participant is asked to walk as far as possible within 6 minutes. The participant will be instructed to walk at their normal pace towards a cone, then turn around, continuing to do so for 6 minutes, Ankle braces and orthoses may be used. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Timed Up and Go (TUG) | The participant will be asked to rise from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, return to the chair and sit down. The test will be performed twice, once at a comfortable pace and once at a maximal pace. Assistive devices, orthoses and ankle braces may be used. |

Individuals with genetic confirmation of DM1 or DM2, or with DMPK CTG repeat length >100, or CCTG repeat length >100. We will recruit from our database of subjects with Myotonic Dystrophy that have been seen in the Stanford clinic in the past 5 years. Other neuromuscular specialists in the Bay Area will be informed and will be asked to refer patients to us for the study. We work closely with the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation, Muscular Dystrophy Foundation, and Myotonic Dystrophy support groups and will spread the word about the study through these as well. We have a separate database of healthy controls that have expressed interest in our research. We will enroll healthy controls via this database, or from laboratory personnel who volunteer.

| Baseline through month 12 |
| Time to Ascend and Descend 4 Stairs | In this task, the participant will climb up and down 4 stairs as quickly as possible. The manner of ascent/descent and the use of railings will be assessed using quality grades. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Timed Supine to Sit | This functional assessment is used to assess axial strength. The participant will be asked to move from supine position to sitting on the edge of a table as quickly as possible. The manner of sitting as well as the time it takes to complete the task will be recorded. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Step Test | This is used to assess standing balance. The participant will be asked to maintain their balance on one leg while the other steps on and off a 7.5cm step as many times as possible within 15 seconds. | Baseline through month 12 |
| Walk-12 Questionnaire | This questionnaire is used to assess walking ability. | Baseline through month 12 |
| DM-ACTIVE Questionnaire | This questionnaire is used to assess the impact of DM1 on daily life. | Baseline through month 12 |
| The Physical Activity Disability Scale (PADS-R) | This questionnaire will assess physical activity. | Baseline through month 12 |
