Consist of limb strengthening exercises, endurance training, and balance/coordination drills. These exercises and training maneuvers may involve the use of handheld weights, nautilus weight equipment, elastic exercise bands, stationary exercise machines (recumbent exercise cycles, hand ergometer cycles), or treadmills. If the subject is fit enough, Tai Chi may be added to as a training method to help improve your balance and strength. In addition, the subject will be asked to wear an accelerometer on their wrist
