About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The new training device, the eccentric arm-crank, will be examined for its training effects in athletes with a spinal cord injury (SCI) by this project. That the training device can be used in patients with paraplegia in the future, the so-called "testing of the applicability of this concept" will be carried out during this study. Fourteen volunteer, healthy athletes with SCI are first tested for their upper body performance, followed by a training phase over 20 trainings and at the end the performance data is collected again. The training intensity and duration is continuously increased during the training phase.
