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 evaluate a lab-based fatigue protocol and to unravel the relationship between physiological or movement data and perceived fatigue.
Participants will take part in three separate measurement moments, during which they will execute a performance task that induces fatigue. In addition, relevant sensors will be used to collect meaningful data.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
People post-stroke
The intervention includes a stress test that induces progressive feelings of fatigue.
Performance test
The participant will be asked to execute a protocol in the movement lab that induces progressive feelings of fatigue. This protocol includes a sequence of relevant functional activities, such as stair walking, slope walking, crouching, walking different path shapes. During this execution the Ratings of Perceived Exertion will be questioned, and simultaneously physiological and movement data will be collected.
Older adults with sarcopenia
The intervention includes a stress test that induces progressive feelings of fatigue.
