Creation of an Algorithm for the Personalisation of Pedalling Exercises

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The aim of the EXO-MODE project is to develop an innovative algorithm for the personalisation of Concentric and / or Eccentric training programmes adapted to the individual to improve the efficiency and tolerance. This algorithm will make it possible to personalise trainings programmes according to the different profiles of subjects, determined on the basis of their personal characteristics (age, sex, comorbidities), their exercise capacity and muscle performance, their level of motivation and their perception of the workload, and of the principal objective of the training programme. The final goal is to develop a tool to allow elderly populations to exercise more easily and more effectively.

Eligibility Criteria
-----------------
Inclusion Criteria: Subject able to understand simple instructions and to provide consent Men or women aged 18 to 75 years old. Subjects who engage in moderate physical activity (Level 1 or 2 defined by the recommendations for the classification of subjects during performance studies) [2]. Exclusion Criteria: Persons without national health insurance cover, Cardio-respiratory failure, coronaropathy, severe obstructive cardiomyopathy, Recent history of venous thromboembolism (previous 3 months), Any medical disorder that could have a major impact on functional capacities (examples: non-stabilised metabolic disorders, such as progressive renal failure, severe asthenia related to a non-stabilised disease, such as neoplasia, systemic disease…), Physical disability affecting the lower limbs or the pelvis that could impair or prevent exercise on a cycle ergometer, whether neurological (central or peripheral), arterial (i particular, arteriopathy of the lower limbs with a systolic index < 0.6) or orthopaedic (degenerative or inflammatory rheumatism). Pregnant or breast-feeding women

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
