Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to determine if: the large muscles of the leg, activated during walking, are also active during scooting; whether scooting alters the relationship between leg and breathing heaviness; whether there is evidence of leg fatigue during scooting.
