Abstract
Aerobic exercise
training has demonstrated positive effects after brain injury. However,
therapists express concern regarding the use of effortful exercise in
individuals presenting with spasticity or involuntary muscle activity.
This study aimed to address this concern and to evaluate whether an
intervention of maximal intensity cycling exercise impaired an
individual's ability to actively extend his hemiparetic elbow. Using a
single case design, it was shown that active elbow extension improved
during the period of this investigation, and was not impaired
immediately following maximal cycling exercise.
