Summary

The purposes of this pilot project are to (a) determine changes in calf muscle blood flow and energy supply resulting from calf muscle exercise, and (b) to determine changes in these variables resulting from exercise training (walking and calf muscle exercise). This is a pilot study to prepare for a larger project in the future. Exercise and exercise training should increase blood flow and energy supply to the calf muscles.
