简要总结
This is a pilot study of a new exercise device (TREDLR) designed to facilitate repetitive ankle flexion/extension movements (i.e., "treadling") through a momentum-driven internal flywheel while seated. The specific goals of this project are to explore improvements in mobility and exercise capacity in individuals who treadle compared to a control group.
