Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Trunk-oriented task combined with functional electrical stimulation training groupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This group will be formed with participants with spinal cord injury. This group will perform 12 weeks of trunk-oriented task training combined with functional electrical stimulation.
Group II: Trunk-oriented task training groupActive Control1 Intervention
This group will be formed with participants with spinal cord injury. This group will perform 12 weeks of trunk-oriented task training.
Group III: Control groupActive Control1 Intervention
Healthy participants will be recruited based on the age and sex of the participants with spinal cord injury to realize clinical, biomechanical and cortical evaluations
