About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Functional Progressive Resistive Exercise (FPRE) is a strengthening approach that combines functional movement activities with progressively increased resistance. It involves performing task-oriented exercises, such as sit-to-stand, stair climbing, and walking-related activities, while gradually increasing the load to enhance muscle strength, endurance, and functional performance. FPRE is widely used in rehabilitation programs to improve mobility and the ability to perform activities of daily living in various populations, including children with neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.
