Overview
Brief Summary
Sedentary behaviour is particularly high among the older and in the presence of a chronic pathology. Physical activity is limited mainly by the lack of accessibility to activities offered in the city and the lack of motivation.
The objective is to study the physical solicitations and the well-being during the visit of a museum (free or guided visit). Our hypothesis is that this cultural activity induces a sufficient physical solicitation for sedentary people and for individuals with a post-stroke motor disability.
All the tests will be carried out during the same day by experienced physiotherapists. Physical and well-being tests will be performed before and after the visits. The number of steps taken during the visit will be measured.
This is a different approach to promote physical activity and this proposal is an original way to stimulate the physical, psychic and social health of sedentary people. If the results are beneficial, museums could become real health partners to stimulate the activity of sedentary people.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of steps during visit in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)
Time Frame: 75 minutes
An activity tracker on the visitor's wrist will measure the number of steps taken while visiting the museum. Parameter: number of steps.
Secondary Outcomes
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): gait speed in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): sit to stand transfert in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): lower limb muscle strength in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): fatigue in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): pain in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): anxiety in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): museum well-being in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
- Safety endpoint 1: fatigue(3 hours)
- Safety endpoint 2: pain(3 hours)
- Safety endpoint 3: number of subjects(3 hours)
- Change from baseline (pre-visit): Postural control in the three groups (free visit vs. guided visit and guided visit for individuals with stroke)(75 minutes)
