What this means
Researchers plan to compare muscle and heart health in older adults with MS to people without MS. They will also see how each group responds to exercise training. This is a trial that has not reported results, so we do not know what it will find.

Registry summary
The purposes of this study are to: 1) compare baseline muscle and cardiovascular health in older individuals (>60 years old) diagnosed with MS to age-matched people without MS, 2) determine muscle and whole body changes to an exercise training program, 3) determine if the muscle in a more affected leg in individuals diagnosed with MS is different from the muscle of a less affected leg, and 4) if or how individuals diagnosed with MS adapt differently than age-matched people without MS to exercise training. Participation in this study will average 1.5 hours per visit, 3 visits per week, for approximately 4 months.
