Summary

This study looked at whether a high-intensity exercise program is safe and helpful for people with aphasia (trouble speaking or understanding language) after a stroke. Twelve stroke survivors took part in either a low-intensity or high-intensity exercise program. Researchers measured changes in language ability, thinking skills, and physical fitness to see if exercise could boost recovery.
