Summary
This study looked at whether reactive balance training (practicing quick steps to avoid falling) can also improve aerobic fitness and leg strength in people who had a stroke. Researchers compared it to standard aerobic and strength exercises. The goal was to see if balance training could offer similar fitness benefits while also improving balance control. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
