Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether supervised progressive resistance training is effective in the early phase after Total Hip Replacement. The investigators hypothesise that 10 weeks of supervised, progressive resistance training immediately after discharge will lead to increased functional performance, muscle strength and muscle power compared to standard rehabilitation consisting of home-based exercise.

Conditions

  • Osteoarthritis, Hip
