Rehabilitation management of neuromuscular disease: the role of exercise training

R Ted Abresch et al. J Clin Neuromuscul Dis. 2009 Sep.

Abstract

This paper summarizes the current state of knowledge regarding exercise and neuromuscular diseases/disorders (NMDs) and reviews salient studies in the literature. Unfortunately, there is inadequate evidence in much of the NMDs to make specific recommendations regarding exercise prescriptions. This review focuses on the role of exercise in a few of the specific NMDs where most research has taken place and recommends future research directions.
