Measure
RT+Tp
Resistance training using electrical stimulation and ankle weights and Testosterone patches Resistance Training and Testosterone Patches: We are going to activate the knee extensor muscle group to lift ankle weights over 16 weeks and we are going to provide Tp to improve anabolic profile.
Testosterone Replacement Patches (Tp)
Applying Testosterone patches Testosterone Patches: The investigators will provide Tp patches for 16 weeks for patients with Spinal Cord Injury.
