Area of Science:

  • Exercise Science
  • Disability Studies
  • Rehabilitation

Background:

  • Online exercise programs reduce barriers like transportation and scheduling.
  • This study investigated the feasibility of online resistance training for individuals with Down syndrome.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the feasibility of a 10-week online resistance training program for individuals with Down syndrome.
  • To assess adherence, participant feedback, and changes in physical performance.

Main Methods:

  • Thirteen individuals with Down syndrome (21.7 ± 5.9 years) participated.
  • A 10-week program with 3 weekly sessions of pre-recorded videos (45-60 min each) was delivered online.
  • Feasibility was assessed via adherence rates, participant surveys, and performance on 30-s sit-to-stand, modified push-up, and 30-s bicep curl tests.

Main Results:

  • 85% completion rate, with 73% meeting the goal of ≥20 sessions.
  • Participants found exercises easy to somewhat easy and videos fun (86.2%).
  • Significant improvements were observed in modified push-ups (p=0.031) and 30-s bicep curls (p<0.001).

Conclusions:

  • Online resistance training programs appear feasible for individuals with Down syndrome.
  • The program demonstrated good adherence and participant satisfaction.
  • Further research is warranted to evaluate the long-term effects and broader applicability of remote resistance training.
