This
week, Team Parkinson’s has 16 members. We looked at research that explored the
role of intense exercise on people with Parkinson’s. The preliminary results
are exciting. After eight weeks of hour-long sessions of riding recumbent bikes, most of
the patients in Dr. Alberts’s study showed significant lessening of tremors and
better body control, improvements that lingered for up to four weeks after they
stopped riding.
