Exercise Services

The CHPS Mutch Unit offers consultation and basic mobility and frailty testing services.

It is staffed by a certified exercise physiologist who can help design exercise training protocols and administer them to clinical research study participants. Consultations to assist with design of exercise intervention protocols, including remote exercise guidance, are available.

Services include grip strength, walk tests, gait speed, and Objective Physical Function tests (e.g. Short Physical Performance Battery, Timed Up and Go).
