This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether aerobic exercise training—combined with standard physical therapy—can help stroke survivors regain fitness, improve their ability to walk, and feel better overall. Stroke can leave people less active and weaker, and this trial wants to see if a structured exercise program can break that cycle and help people recover more fully.
After a stroke, many people become inactive, which can lead to other health problems and a lower quality of life. This trial exists to find out whether adding aerobic exercise to regular physical therapy can give stroke survivors better results than therapy alone.

If you join this study, you'll be assigned to one of two groups. One group will do aerobic exercise training (like walking on a treadmill or stationary bike) plus standard physical therapy exercises, while the other group will do standard physical therapy only. You'll visit the outpatient clinic regularly over several weeks, and researchers will measure your heart and lung fitness, how far you can walk in 6 minutes, and how you feel about your overall health and independence.
