Eccentric cycling exercise for healthy adults
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a special kind of exercise bike that works your muscles in a different way (called eccentric cycling) to see if it helps healthy people improve their fitness. You would ride this bike for 3 months, and the study team will check your progress.
