Summary
Stroke survivors, as a group, are extremely inactive and this has serious consequences for them, including an increased risk of a second stroke and developing other diseases. This study investigates a novel intervention designed to improve everyday activity after stroke by combining walking training to improve walking capacity with a program to encourage more daily walking.
