Long-term exercise may help restore brain connections in Parkinson’s disease

by Ansley Kelm, University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Andrew Zinin For each session, participants were required to pedal up to a speed of 80 rpm. The adaptive, motorized bike assisted them in attaining that level but also added and reduced resistance depending on the rider’s effort. Researchers believe this push-and-pull mechanism is
