About

The goal of this research study is to develop an AI-based model to detect physical fatigue in healthy young adults. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Can muscle, heart, and brain signals be used to predict physical fatigue in real time?
2. How accurately can an AI model detect fatigue based on these signals?

Participants will:

• Perform moderate to high intensity physical exercises, including static bicycling and dumbbell squats, while wearing non-invasive sensors that measure muscle activity (sEMG), heart rate (HR), and brain activity (EEG).
• Before starting the exercises, participants will complete a brief warm-up session that includes stretching and mobility movements.
• Each participant undergoes two training sessions, with pre- and post-evaluations of their physical fitness status and static muscle strength.

Enrollment: 30 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 30 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

• Participants who provide written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

• Individuals younger than 18 or older than 30
• History of any metabolic, systemic, or musculoskeletal disorder
