“…It has been suggested that FES-rowing mirrors able-bodied rowing and provides a framework for whole-body exercise in the SCI population (Halliday et al, 2004). Although it certainly engages both the upper and lower body and can resemble able-bodied rowing, the kinematics and kinetics of FES-rowing are different.…”

“…Though FES-rowing has been investigated for training purposes for several years, only a few kinematic and kinetic parameters have been reported and only in single case reports (Davoodi and Andrews, 2004; Gibbons et al, 2014; Halliday et al, 2004). This is the first work characterizing FES-rowing within a group of subjects, allowing for broader comparisons and conclusions.…”

“…Halliday (Halliday et al, 2004) showed in a single case that motion of the arms, ankle, and knee is similar in FES-rowing as compared to able-bodied rowing. However, FES-rowing demonstrates different rowing stroke timing and external forces at both the handle and feet compared to able-bodied rowing.…”

Hybrid functional electrical stimulation (FES) rowing has positive effects on cardiovascular fitness, producing significantly greater aerobic power than either upper body or FES exercise alone. However, there is minimal information on the kinematics, kinetics, and mechanical efficiency of FES-rowing in the spinal cord injured (SCI) population. This study examined the biomechanics of FES-rowing to determine how motions, forces, and aerobic demand change with increasing intensity. Six individuals with SCI and six able-bodied subjects performed a progressive aerobic capacity rowing test. Differences in kinematics (motion profiles), kinetics (forces produced by the feet and arms), external mechanical work, and mechanical efficiency (work produced/volume of oxygen consumed) were compared in able-bodied rowing vs. SCI FES-rowing at three comparable subpeak workloads. With increasing exercise intensity (measured as wattage), able-bodied rowing increased stroke rate by decreasing recovery time, while FES-rowing maintained a constant stroke rate, with no change in drive or recovery times. While able-bodied rowers increased leg and arm forces with increasing intensity, FES-rowers used only their arms to achieve a higher intensity with a constant and relatively low contribution of the legs. Oxygen consumption increased in both groups, but more so in able-bodied rowers, resulting in able-bodied rowers having twice the mechanical efficiency of FES-rowers. Our results suggest that despite its ability to allow for whole body exercise, the total force output achievable with FES-rowing results in only modest loading of the legs that affects overall rowing performance and that may limit forces applied to bone.

ObjectiveTo examine the cardiorespiratory responses of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) paraplegia using a motor driven rowing machine.MethodTen SCI patients with paraplegia [A (n=6), B (n=1), and C (n=3) by the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale] were selected. Two rowing techniques were used. The first used a fixed seat with rowing achieved using only upper extremity movement (fixed rowing). The second used an automatically moving seat, facilitating active upper extremity movement and passive lower extremity movement via the motorized seat (motor rowing). Each patient performed two randomly assigned rowing exercise stress tests 1-3 days apart. The work rate (WR), time, respiratory exchange ratio (R), oxygen consumption (VO2), heart rate (HR), metabolic equivalents (METs), and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) were recorded.ResultsWR, time, VO2, and METs were significantly higher after the motor rowing test than after fixed motor rowing test (p<0.05). HR after motor rowing was significantly lower than fixed rowing (p<0.05).ConclusionCardiorespiratory responses as VO2, HR and METs can be elicited by the motor rowing for people with paraplegic SCI.
