Summary

This study looks at fatigue in older adults (65+) and people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers want to understand how tiredness during daily activities relates to muscle fatigue during exercise. Participants will fill out questionnaires and do two short exercises (handgrip and a leg-pushing task) to measure fatigue. The goal is to improve how fatigue is assessed and managed in these groups.
