A resistance exercise set for a total body workout for adults with intellectual disabilities, a pilot study
BACKGROUND: Resistance training has beneficial effects on fitness levels, cardiovascular disease risk, risk of sarcopenia and on performing activities of daily living. The focus of this study is to design a total body resistance exercise set for adults with intellectual disabilities (RESID) with min...

description | BACKGROUND: Resistance training has beneficial effects on fitness levels, cardiovascular disease risk, risk of sarcopenia and on performing activities of daily living. The focus of this study is to design a total body resistance exercise set for adults with intellectual disabilities (RESID) with minimal equipment required and to test its feasibility. METHOD: The RESID was selected in an expert meeting, and its feasibility was determined in a cross‐sectional pilot study. The feasibility was determined with completion rate, correct execution of exercises and the participant's experience. RESULTS: The expert group (n = 7) selected seven exercises for the RESID. The participants (N = 11) performed the RESID twice during regular sports classes. Completion rate and correctness were excellent for all exercises. The participants did not experience any major problems with the RESID. CONCLUSIONS: The RESID is feasible for use in different training settings. A physiotherapist or fitness instructor is required to supervise the training sessions. |
