Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Measurement of lower muscle strength is examine using the BIODEX system. Measurement is baseline, after 4 weeks, and 8 weeks.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Secondary outcomes are muscle thickness, balance performance, and motor unit recruitment. Measurement of muscle thickness is examine using the ultrasound. Measurement of balance performance is examine using the Berg balance scale. Measurement of motor unit recruitment is examine using the multi-channel surface electromyography. Measurement is baseline, after 4 weeks, and 8 weeks.	—
