Summary

It is essential that individuals living with stroke engage in physical activity to improve cardiovascular risk factors and reduce the risk of stroke (Billinger et al, 2014). This objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of an educational brochure that promotes exercise in people with stroke, combined with a motivational telephone support, on maintaining physical activity. Fifty participants with stroke will be enrolled. This study will provide insight into implementing effective tools that are designed to help individuals with stroke maintain physically active behaviours in the long-term.
