Effect of Various Forms of Upper Body Exercise on the Energetic Response to a Meal in Persons With Spinal Cord Injury

This study investigates the effect of various forms of upper extremity exercise on
postprandial glycemia and lipemia in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). Participants are
measured at rest and fed a standardized meal following seated rest (CON), moderate intensity
continuous arm cycling (MICT), high intensity interval arm cycling (HIIT), and circuit
resistance exercise (CRT) matched for exercise energy expenditure.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Adult (>/=18 years of age)

- Neurologically stable chronic (>/= 1year) spinal cord injury (SCI)

- American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) grade A, B, or C

- SCI at level
Exclusion Criteria:

- Being of ≤ 18 years of age.

- Contraindication to exercise (ACSM Guideline, 10th edition)

- Lower extremity fracture or dislocation within 6 months of participation,

- History head injury or seizures.

- Inability to consent.

- Restrictions in upper extremity range of motion that would prevent an individual from
achieving an unhindered arm cycling motion or moving throughout a range needed to
perform resistance maneuvers.

- A pressure ulcer at ischial/gluteus, trochanteric, sacral, or heel sites within the
last 3 months.

- Pregnancy determined by urine testing in sexually active females.

- Imprisonment in state or federal jail or prison.
