BEHAVIORAL

Progressive Resistance Training

Participants will perform required resistance training exercises at regular intervals for a period of up to 3 years. They will be tested at a baseline visit, then every 6 months for a total of at least 5 visits. During these visits, they will be asked to complete the following: questionnaires about quality of life and depression, tests to measure strength and motor function, tests to measure cognition, an orientation session to learn a precision griping task, structural and functional MRI scans of the brain, measurement of brain waves using a non-invasive technique called electroencephalography (EEG) and muscle activity using electromyography (EMG), measurement of brain function with TMS, pregnancy test (if applicable).
