Sponsor's own description

Here the investigators aim to show that a focused lower extremity resistance strength training program in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) results in increased motor strength of ankle plantar- and dorsi-flexion. The investigators will use motor unit index MUNIX and hand held dynamometry to correlate strength changes. The investigators believe that increased strength will correlate with an increased motor unit number and as such will prove that axonal renervation or improved recruitment is possible with a focused exercises in patients with CMT. Additionally, the investigators will show that that MUNIX declines over a 12-week period in patients with CMT whom continue standard of care. This will identify MUNIX as a responsive marker for disease progression in addition to detecting functional improvement, which will be valuable for future clinical trials.
