This study asks three questions about Persons with Parkinson Disease that use a bicycle for exercise. 1. Does the use of virtual reality increase the intensity and and enjoyment of the experience compared to bicycling without virtual reality? 2. Does the way in which the bicycling (interval compared to continous) is performed affect the experience? 3. How does the way the virtual reality is delivered (with goggles or projected on a screen) affect the experience?
Participants attend two sessions. They complete movement assessments and questionnaires about physical activity. During the first session they bicycle in a semi-immersive (projected on a screen) and an immersive (with googles) virtual environment. After each bout they completed a questionnaire about the experience. In the second session they bicycle four times with and without a virtual environment using both a continous and interval mode. Their oxygen consumption is measured during cycling. They complete questionnaires after each exercise bout.

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bicycling with and without virtual reality | Other | In one session: Exercise intensity and enjoyment are measured while participants bicycle in a virtual compared to non-virtual environment. Cycling takes places in two modes continous and interval. In a second session exercise intensity and enjoyment are compared during bicycling with virtual reality presented in two different ways. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Neuromuscular Intensity | bicycling cadence collected continuously | Collected in two sessions: Session 1(day 1 for 2 hours) collected continuously during 2 exercise bouts to compare exercise bouts.____Session 2 (day 2 for 2 hours) collected continuously in four exercise bouts to compare exercise bouts |
| Physiological Responses to Exercise- Oxygen Consumption | Metabolic equivalents derived from oxygen consumption which is collected continuously during four exercise bouts. | Collected in two sessions: Session 1(day 1 for 2 hours) collected continuously during 2 exercise bouts to compare exercise bouts___ Session 2 (day 2 for 2 hours) collected continuously in four exercise bouts to compare exercise bouts |
| Enjoyment-Motivation | Intrinsic Motivation Inventory Enjoyment sub-scales collected at the end of each exercise bout | Collected in two sessions: Session 1 collected continuously during 2 exercise bouts in a 2 hour Session 2: in four exercise bouts in a 2 hour session to compare exercise bouts |
| Heart Rate % of maximum | Collected continuously during exercise bouts and will be evaluated as a % of age adjusted maximum heart rate | Collected in two sessions: Session 1 collected continuously during 2 exercise bouts in a 2 hour Session 2: in four exercise bouts in a 2 hour session to compare exercise bouts |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Borg Scale for Rate of perceived exertion | Self-Report of Effort collected at a multiple time points to compare with exercise bouts | Collected in both Day 1 and 2 (each day is two hours) as follows: Day 1 (4 times in each of the two cycling bouts) Day 2 (6 times each of the four cycling bouts) |
| Cyber sickness Questionnaire |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| UPDRS-III Subscale | Description of Motor Performance Scored from 0-108 a lower score is better outcome | Collected once in Day 1 |
