Summary

Both strength training and endurance exercise training are commonly prescribed to improve strength and function in patients with physical limitations caused by chronic disease or disability including chronic kidney disease (CKD). Individuals with CKD often have low physical function due to progressive declines in the performance of their kidneys. The low physical function leads to physical inactivity, which exacerbates these functional declines and promotes cardiovascular disease and bone disorders. In addition, severe functional limitations in some patients prevent them from exercising at a great enough intensity to provide significant benefits. As a result, alternative strategies are needed to maximize the benefits of exercise while decreasing injury risk.
