Description

Oussama Gaied Chortane and three co-authors report a 2024 study on long-term adapted exercise for older adults with Parkinson disease. The disease has no cure, and its reach grows as populations age. Regular training is a drug-free aid that can ease symptoms and slow decline.

Fifty adults aged 60 to 80 trained three times a week for 12 to 16 months. Sessions mixed adapted boxing, strength work, and warm-up and cool-down steps. The team measured balance, walking speed, and leg strength, plus life quality on a standard Parkinson survey. The study tests whether gains hold when training runs long.
