An arm ergometer analog of the Canadian Aerobic Fitness Test (CAFT) has been proposed for subjects with impairmants of mobility (Longmuir & Shephard, 1995). Because of muscles weakness or spasm, only 63% of the adults concerned could maintain the required cadence in the original test version. Thus, in the present study it was hypothesized that a reduce crank loading would yield a higer rate.
