Exercising after spinal cord injury (SCI) is necessary to prevent or reduce secondary complications such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, or type II diabetes. The effects of SCI on muscle and autonomic functions determine type, duration, and intensity of exercise capacity. Although SCI exercise guidelines exist, achieving these recommendations requires a comprehensive understanding of how muscle and autonomic function affect a person’s exercise capability. Therefore, we reviewed the effect of SCI level on muscle and sympathetic function during exercise for those living with SCI to better develop strategies to achieve these guidelines. A literature review of exercise, muscle control and SCI was performed to identify muscles innervated by each level and how key sympathetic tissues and organs required for exercise are affected by SCI. We identified spinal levels responsible for increasing heart rate, cardiovascular smooth muscle contraction, inducing sweat and activating adrenal glands since these are essential in maintaining high intensity and long duration exercise. We translated the information into a comprehensive user-friendly poster. A comprehensive graphical poster was developed for those living with SCI to understand and identify how their level of SCI affects their muscle and sympathetic function needed for optimal exercise and to meet exercise guidelines. This infographic fills a void since this type of ‘person-centred’ information is lacking in the SCI and exercise field. The knowledge acquired through this infographic could further guide training practices and exercise modifications to increase exercise capacity and quality of life for those living with SCI.
