Effects of Pediatric Endurance and Limb Strengthening (PEDALS) Program VS Task-Oriented Training (TOT) Improving Gross Motor Function in Children With Cerebral Palsy

Participants will perform pediatric endurance and limb strengthening (PEDALS) program. The stationary cycling intervention will be performed 3 times per week, for a total of 24 sessions, within 8 weeks period. The longer session duration is designed to allow adequate rest intervals between set (1-3 minutes). A generalized stretching program will be performed prior to cycling for mental relaxation for 6-7 minutes. Ankle-foot orthosis if used for walking. Each 60 minutes cycling session will be divided into 2 phases: (1) lower-extremity strengthening and (2) cardiorespiratory endurance.

The experimental protocol consists of task-oriented training program (TOT) .it will be performed 3 times per week, for a total of 24 sessions, within 8 weeks period. Before each training session, there will be a warm-up period with 5 to 10 minutes of dynamic activities (e.g., jogging). After training, there will be a cool down period with 5 to 10 minutes of dynamic stretching exercises. In addition to rest intervals. after training session, there will be a 48-hour rest interval to prevent muscle fatigue and injury.
