Summary

Individuals disabled by stroke are at risk of losing cardiovascular fitness and muscle due to disease. This worsens disability and can increase the risk of having another stroke or a heart attack. We would like to find out if and how different types of regular exercise (intense walking, long walking) can increase fitness, balance and improve walking function and activities of daily living in individuals who have suffered a stroke.
