The effects of eight weeks swing exercises on functional ability and quality of life in multiple sclerosis women with emphasis on Expanded disability Status Scale

INTERVENTION: Intervention 1: The first intervention group: They performed suspended and semi‐suspended swing exercises for eight weeks. Training protocol: First, ten minutes of warm‐up, which included stretching and kinetic movements with a medium and low level, were performed, and then the swing exercises began. The protocol consists of eight weeks of suspended and unstable exercises, which were performed using a swing tool, and the intensity of the exercise was changed by increasing the repetitions and changing the grips and leveling of the movements. Intervention 2: The second intervention group: They performed suspended and semi‐suspended swing exercises for eight weeks. Training protocol: First, ten minutes of warm‐up, which included stretching and kinetic movements with a medium and low level, were performed, and then the swing exercises began. The protocol consists of eight weeks of suspended and unstable exercises, which were performed using a swing tool, and the intensity of the exercise was changed by increasing the repetitions and changing the grips and leveling of the movements. Intervention 3: Control group: The patients in this group did their normal daily activities and the things that the relevant doctor had announced and no restrictions were imposed by the researcher.
