About this study

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition that can affect movement, balance, endurance, and overall quality of life. Exercise is widely recognized as one of the most effective non-pharmacological treatments to help people with PD maintain function and independence. However, not all exercise programs produce the same results, and more research is needed to understand which types of exercise offer the greatest physical and physiological benefits. This study is designed to examine how different types of structured exercise programs influence motor function, cardiorespiratory fitness, and markers of overall health in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to better understand how exercise can be used to improve movement, daily activities, and general well-being, as well as how it affects the body at a physiological level. Participants will be adults diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson's disease who are medically stable and able to safely participate in exercise. Before beginning the study, participants will complete screening procedures to ensure safety and eligibility. Eligible participants will then be assigned to one of several supervised exercise interventions conducted over a defined period. Each exercise program is designed to improve movement and function but differs in structure or training emphasis (for example, aerobic, functional, or task-specific activity). Exercise sessions will take place under the supervision of licensed physica…
