Intensive exercise training for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a high-intensity exercise program to help people who have had a stroke improve their strength and mobility. It may help you walk better and be more independent in daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You had your first stroke at least 6 months ago.

This trial studies a more intensive, early walking exercise program after a stroke. It may help improve walking speed, balance, and the ability to move safely with less support.
This trial tests if high-intensity treadmill training can improve walking speed for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It focuses on those who still walk slowly and may use a walker or cane.
This study tests a home-based exercise program if you had a stroke more than 6 months ago but less than 10 years ago. You'll do it on your own, and the program may help you move better and stay stronger.
This study tests a home-based exercise program guided by a physical therapist through video calls. It aims to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve their strength and daily function.
This study tests a special cycling exercise program designed to help people who have had a stroke regain arm and leg movement. It aims to see if this focused cycling therapy can improve recovery and reduce healthcare costs.
This study tests whether exercise plus motor learning training can improve walking and movement after a stroke that happened more than 6 months ago. You may be a good candidate if you can walk on your own and your stroke-related brain injury is not mainly in the cerebellum.
