Summary

Although High-intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise has emerged in recent years as a powerful time-efficient alternative to moderate-intensity continuous cardiovascular exercise training (MICT) to enhance neuroplasticity, motor, and cognitive functions, its feasibility remains to be determined early after stroke. Our study aims to investigate the feasibility of the HIIT program and its effects on functional abilities, cognitive function, and quality of life in early post-stroke.

Conditions

  • Stroke, Acute

Interventions

OTHER

Conventional physiotherapy followed by HIIT-REC program

The experimental protocol will be preceded by 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy followed by 15 min the rest period; then the HIIT-REC procedure will start at 4-min at 30% of the peak workload interspersed with 1-min at 70% of the peak workload at 50 rpm for weeks 1-2 and increased by approximately 5 minutes every two weeks as tolerated to reach 30 minutes from week 5 (4 to 6 repetitions). The training intensity will progress similarly by 5% peak workload two weeks as tolerated to reach 4-min at 40% peak workload interspersed with 1-min 80% peak workload from week-5
