Paper Group
The paper group performed the first exercise session under supervision of the SLP. After this first session, the IOPI and SEA were given home, patients received a logbook with written instructions and they continued practicing at home. They were asked to register in their logbook how many exercise repetitions they performed each day and whether these repetitions were successful or not. Adherence was then calculated based on the patients’ record.Once a week, an appointment with the SLP was scheduled to recalculate the target level, based on their new 1RM.
