Brief Summary: The investigators will explore the impact of hand cycling on hand function in people with Parkinsons Disease PD The study will compare the effects of two different hand cycling approaches-steady-state and interval efforts-on improving hand dexterity in people with PD Conducted as a clinical trial it aims to understand if a single session of hand cycling can temporarily enhance hand function and if the nature of the exercise influences the benefit
Detailed Description: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of hand cycling an upper limb aerobic exercise on hand function in individuals with Parkinsons Disease PD

Parkinsons Disease affects motor skills including hand dexterity which can impede daily activities While aerobic exercise is known to have benefits for people with PD the specific impact of upper limb exercises like hand cycling on hand function is less studied Previous research suggests aerobic exercises can improve symptoms and motor function in PD This study aims to fill the gap in understanding how hand cycling affects hand dexterity in PD There is no placebo involved in this study as it compares two active intervention types steady-state and high-intensity interval hand cycling

This is a block randomized parallel group clinical trial involving a single session of exercise intervention Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups steady-state or high-intensity interval hand cycling The study includes baseline assessments the exercise intervention and post-intervention assessments to evaluate changes in hand function

The primary endpoint is the time to complete the 9-hole pegboard test with the clinically more affected hand Secondary endpoints include changes in motor examination scores finger tapping speed and subjective measures of exercise perception Analysis of covariance will be used to compare the primary outcome between groups accounting for baseline performance and clinical characteristics The planned sample size is 20 people with PD aiming to capture varied clinical expressions of the disease
