Usability of the Adapted Rower for People With Spinal Cord Injury
Sponsor: University of South Carolina
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine usability of a locally built adaptive rower for people with spinal cord injury using an established and tested design. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What exercise intensity of activity do users achieve on the rower for steady state and interval rowing plans? 2. What assistance is required for setup and usage of the adaptive rower? 3. What do users think about the ease of use and what is their satisfaction with the adaptive rower? Participants will complete a one-time exercise session with two adaptive rower bouts (10-15 minutes each) with a rest period in between.

Adaptive Rowing Exercise
Participants will perform two bouts of rowing exercise each with a 2-minute warm up and cool down in addition to the following: (1)10 minutes of steady state rowing with goals to achieve moderate intensity exertion levels, followed by a variable rest period to return exertion and heart rate to initial levels, (2) 10 minutes of interval rowing alternating between one minute of low-moderate intensity and 30 seconds of moderate-vigorous intensity.
