Strength and endurance training for Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a circuit training program that combines strength and endurance exercises to see if it helps people with Parkinson's disease improve their movement and daily function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
