Study Summary
This trial will test if adults with cerebral palsy can stay with an at-home exercise program when given help through tele-rehabilitation, and if this improves their fitness and mobility.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 21-60 with spastic cerebral palsy (GMFCS I-III) who can stand and walk independently for short periods, follow directions, and have not had recent orthopedic surgery or Botox. Participants need a device to access Zoom sessions but cannot join if they have certain medical conditions like uncontrolled hypertension or seizures.Check my eligibility

What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves an exercise program, potential side effects may include typical post-exercise symptoms such as muscle soreness, fatigue, or mild discomfort. However, specific side effects will depend on individual health conditions.
