Study Summary

The first purpose of this study is to characterize the relationship among propulsion workload, self-selected propulsion speed, and propulsion kinetics/kinematics. The second purpose is to assess the between days repeatability/reliability of the above outcomes. There are no hypothesis This is a repeated measures clinical trial. All participants will complete the following: 1) Acclimation to propelling a manual wheelchair on a wheelchair ergometer; 2) Graded exercise test on the wheelchair ergometer to 80% of age adjusted estimated maximal heart rate; and 3) N=20 one minute propulsion bouts on the wheelchair ergometer.

Primary Outcome

Average linear propulsion speed during each completed propulsion cycle (i.e. contact+recovery) averaged across all completed propulsion cycles in the specified time frame.

Interventions
