Finding the best workout for stroke recovery

NCT ID NCT05936008

Summary

This study tested whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or moderate continuous exercise works better for improving fitness and brain blood flow in people who have had a stroke. Fifty-nine stroke survivors completed a 4-week exercise program using a seated stepper machine. Researchers measured changes in fitness, blood vessel health, and blood flow to the brain to help determine the best exercise approach for future stroke recovery programs.
