Implications of maximal muscle strength and aerobic capacity for lower extremity physical function in people with multiple sclerosis—a cross-sectional study
Both maximal muscle strength and aerobic capacity to physical function in pwMS. Maximal muscle strength was preferentially linked to performance in the 5STS test, whereas aerobic capacity was preferentially linked to performance in the 6MWT. These findings support the need for tailored exercise interventions to target specific physiological deficits during MS rehabilitation.
