Upper extremity aerobic exercise training

Aerobic exercise training will be given to the training group on an arm ergometer 3 days in a week and 30-45 minutes a day for 6 weeks with the assistance of a physiotherapist. The training workload of aerobic exercise training will be applied at 50-80% of peak oxygen consumption or 60-80% of peak heart rate, dyspnea 3-4 points according to the Modified Borg Scale (MBS) or fatigue 4-6 points. Blood sugar measurement will be performed before exercise training. Individuals with a blood sugar result of \>300 mg/dL will not be allowed to exercise that day.
