Summary

This study tests whether a structured strength training program (called FaStEx) can reduce fatigue in people who have had a stroke. Sixteen participants will either do strength training twice a week plus home exercise, or just home exercise alone, for eight weeks. The main goal is to see if the program is practical and acceptable, and to measure changes in fatigue, leg strength, and balance confidence.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Structured strength training (FaStEx)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward a simple, drug-free way to reduce fatigue after a stroke.
What could go wrong: This is a very small feasibility study (16 people) that hasn't started yet. It's designed to test whether the approach is practical, not whether it works. Results may not apply to everyone.
