Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Therefore, the main purpose of this pilot research project is to implement and test a form of a spinal cord injury-specific exercise, known as FES rowing (FES: functional electrical stimulation).

Functional electrical stimulation rowing
Using an Odstock 4 channel neuromuscular stimulator with Concept 2 Rower
Functional electrical stimulation rowing (Odstock 4 channel neuromuscular stimulator with Concept 2 Rower)
Participants will strengthen their quadriceps and hamstrings using electrical stimulation for up to 12 weeks (using an Odstock 4 channel neuromuscular stimulator). Then participants will use a seated rower (Concept 2 Rower, fitted with a backrest that allows those with spinal cord injury to engage in rowing) in conjunction with the electrical stimulation for 12-24 weeks.
