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.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

Age 21-85
Chronic stroke (>6 months post stroke)
Able to walk at self-selected speed without assistance from another person (assistive devices are allowed)
Self-selected walking speed >0.3 m/s and 1 on question 1b and >0 on question 1c on the NIH Stroke Scale.
