Daily Undulating Periodization Methods With Parkinson's Disease

Exercises at 75-80% of the subject's maximum for strength exercise using contractions with 2 second concentric and 3 second eccentric for the strength day. 30-80% of subjects' maximal strength for the power day with high-speed concentric and 2 second eccentric contractions, and exercises that simulate activities of daily living for the motor practice day. All resistance-training will be performed on Keiser air-driven machines. Subjects will perform 10 exercises targeting all major muscle groups. The training will last for 12 consecutive weeks, for a total of 36 visits. Each visit will be approximately 60 minutes long and will consist of 5 minutes warm-up, 50 minutes of training and five minutes of cool-down.
