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 understand the relationship between perceived effort and physiological and kinematic variables caused by isometric activity of the upper limbs, as well as its relationship with socio-demographic characteristics, level of activity and quality of life.
