High-speed strength training for Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a special exercise program that focuses on moving quickly to improve strength and movement in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help with walking and daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Parkinson's disease at stages 1 to 3 (mild to moderate symptoms).
- You can walk 50 meters (about half a football field) without any help.
- You can understand and communicate in English.
- You do not have serious heart, blood vessel, or other muscle/nerve conditions that would make exercise unsafe.
- You do not have active inflammatory or autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis.
- You have no recent injury or surgery that prevents you from weight training.

This study compares two types of weight training (lifting lighter weights versus heavier weights) in people with Parkinson's disease. It aims to see which approach best improves movement, strength, and daily function.
This study tests whether a guided strength training program can improve physical function and quality of life in people living with Parkinson's disease. You'll get expert-led exercises designed to strengthen muscles, which may help with daily movement and stability.
This trial tests whether a high-intensity functional training program (a mix of strength, balance, and endurance exercises) can improve both physical movement and thinking skills in people with early-stage Parkinson's disease. You may qualify if you are in the early stages, exercise regularly, and can walk independently.
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.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help people with Parkinson's disease walk better and feel steadier. If you are in the early-to-moderate stages and have some walking issues, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a program to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their walking and balance through physical exercise. It's for people in early to moderate stages who have some walking trouble.
