Bone loss is a common secondary complication of spinal cord injury (SCI), and treatments
used to reverse this condition have equivocal effectiveness. The aim of this study is to
determine the effect of intense multi-modal training on bone health, body fat, and quality
of life in persons with SCI. Participants will complete 6 months of training during which
various measures will be obtained at 0, 3, and 6 months. Control subjects are also being
recruited to complete testing but not participate in training.
