Physical fitness training for patients with stroke: updated review.

Objectives The primary aim of the review was to determine whether physical fitness training (cardiorespiratory training and/or resistance training) after stroke reduces death, dependence, and disability at the end of intervention or at the end of follow-up. The secondary aim was to determine the effects of fitness training on physical fitness, mobility, physical function, health status and quality of life, mood, and the incidence of adverse events.
