Summary

The purpose of the trial is to investigate the physiological, mental, social health effect among individuals with low physical mobility participating in one of the two pre-existing initiatives: the Danish 'Team Twin' and Cycling Without Age. In these, the individuals with low physical mobility are moved by and together with by normal functioning volunteers.

Based on the above, this research project will answer the following research questions:

1. Does movement by others improves the quality of life (QOL) among individuals with low physical mobility
2. Does movement by others improves the physiological health among individuals with low physical mobility
3. Does moving individuals with low physical mobility improve health among normal functioning individuals (i.e volunteer runners and pilots)?
4. How does participation in the physical activity initiatives influence well-being, relations and attitudes among relatives (to the disabled individuals) and employees at nursing homes?
