Impact of Community-based Boxing Exercises in Individuals With Chronic Stroke
Impact of Community-based Non-contact Boxing Exercise on Individuals With Chronic Stroke - a Pilot Study
The purpose of this study is to examine if non-contact boxing exercises improve balance, physical performance, quality of life and physical activity in adults with chronic stroke. It will also learn about the physical activity trend in adults with chronic stroke. The main research questions of the study are:
- Do community-based non-contact boxing exercises improve the balance in participants with chronic stroke?
- How is the exercise intensity of boxing exercises in individuals with chronic stroke? Researchers will test one group of participants without a comparison group.
Participants will need to complete the following tasks over 8 weeks:
- Participate in the boxing exercise program once per week for 8 weeks
- Attend two evaluation sessions: the initial and the final evaluation sessions.
- Keep a diary of their daily step counts
- Learn to assess their own physical fatigue and mental fatigue level during boxing exercise sessions.

Detaljerad beskrivning
Each participant will receive a pedometer at the end of the initial evaluation session of the study. The pedometer will be used to track their daily step count. After 8 weeks, each participant will receive a gift card with a nominal value at the final evaluation session.

The 10-Meter Walk Test
Tidsram: 8 weeks
|
The 10-Meter Walk Test is a gait speed assessment that requires the participant to walk 6 meters. Participants are asked to walk as fast as possible while maintaining their balance. They will be given 2 trials and gait speed will be calculated by taking the average of the two trials. |

Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction on Balance:
Tidsram: 8 weeks
|
Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction on Balance: This computerized test assesses an individual's postural sway and risk of falls at different conditions (30 seconds each): eyes open/firm surface, eyes closed/firm, eyes open/foam surface. eyes closed/foam surface. There are rails on both side of the platform that the participant can hold onto when needed, and two researchers will guard the participant with a gait belt. |
8 weeks

Physical activity
Tidsram: 8 weeks
|
Participants will wear a pedometer to track their daily step count and record on the activity log (on paper) over 8 weeks. The research team will call them every week to collect their previous 7-day step count data. |
