Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to see if it's possible to reach high cardiovascular intensity training parameters (exercise at a rate that elevates heart rate to the level recommended for improving strength and endurance) while walking in a wearable robotic exoskeleton. This study will also evaluate if exercising at high intensity will lead to improvement in walking ability. Participants in this study will be asked to attend 5 walking training sessions using Ekso exoskeleton. There will be two additional sessions, one before and one after the five training sessions. At these two sessions, study participants will be asked to participate in seated balance, walking speed and endurance tests and breathing assessments.
