چکیده

purpose the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an eight-week progressive resistance training and vibration program on strength and ambulatory function in multiple sclerosis (ms) patients. methods twenty-four female ms patients with the following demographics: age 27-45 years, and expanded disability status scale (edss) 2-4, participated in this study. the subjects were randomly allocated to one of two groups. the exercise group (n = 12) trained according to a progressive program, mainly consisting of resistance training and vibration, three times a week for eight weeks and compared with subjects in the control group (n = 12) that received no intervention. subjects completed one set of 5-12 reps at%50-70 maximal voluntary contraction (mvc). after 5-10 minutes rest, six postures on plate vibration were done. isotonic mvc of knee extensors, abduction of the scapula and downward rotation of the scapular girdle muscle groups were predicted by using the brzycki formula. right leg balance (rlb), left leg balance (llb), and walking speed (10-meter walk test) were assessed before and after the training program. descriptive statistics and co-variance were used for analyzing data. results after eight weeks of training the exercise group showed significant increase in mvc of knee extensors (32.3%), abduction of the scapula (24.7%) and downward rotation scapular (39.1%) muscle groups, rlb (33.5%), llb (9.5%), and decrease in 10-meter walk test (10mwt) (9.3%), (p<0.05). conclusions the results of this study indicated this type of training can cause improvements in muscle strength and functional capacity in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Effect of TRX Suspension Training on Functional Balance in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

Introduction: Many people with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience difficulty with balance and walking, which can make daily activities difficult. Recent studies in rehabilitation procedures emphasize on functional suspension training using body weight resistance against gravity by unstable tools and equipment that are similar to daily activities. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to dete...

Effects of high-speed power training on muscle strength and power in patients with multiple sclerosis.

This study examined the effects of a high-speed power training program in peak muscle power and maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of knee extensors in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). Forty patients, 20 women (age 42.8 +/- 10.3 yr) and 20 men (age 44.0 +/- 8.7 yr) diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS were randomly assigned, with respect to sex, to either ...
