Summary

This study is investigating the potential effects of a high-intensity home-exercise program among children with cerebral palsy. The program includes rhythmic movements to music that are adapted for wheelchair uses and age-appropriate themes. This project has the potential to address a large knowledge gap in the extant literature, because there are no widely accessible, evidence-based, enjoyable, and age-appropriate modalities for improving cardiovascular fitness or cardiometabolic health among children with disabilities who have mobility disabilities.
