Summary

This study aims to assess the effects of progressive resistance training compared with aerobic training, among those with hemophilia. Participants will be divided into two groups. The control group will receive an aerobic exercise protocol, and the resistance group will follow a resistance training program. Each group will receive a total of eight sessions. Target muscles are deltoids, biceps, triceps, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves.

Subjective and objective assessment will be performed for each group, to determine the effectiveness of each intervention.
