Maximal Strength Training Enhances Strength and Functional Performance in Chronic Stroke Survivors

Abstract

Maximal strength training improved muscle strength in the most affected as well as in the nonaffected leg and improved Timed-Up-And-Go time and 6-min walk distance but did not alter Four-Step Square Test time, aerobic status, or quality-of-life among chronic stroke survivors.
