Brief Summary: A pilot trial to determine the feasibility of treadmill training with dual training in patients with Fragile X-Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS).
Detailed Description: There is substantial evidence that physical exercise can improve motor and cognitive function in individuals with Parkinson's Disease, traumatic brain injury or chronic stroke survivors. However, to the investigator's knowledge, no studies have explored the effect of treadmill training with or without a cognitive dual Task on gait, balance and cognition in Fragile X - Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS), which is characterized by action tremor, cerebellar gait ataxia, parkinsonism, peripheral neuropathy and cognitive deficits, all of which increase the risk for falls and progressive disability. There are presently no medications or treatment interventions that have been shown to effectively manage the symptoms of FXTAS or delay disease progression, and it is currently not clear whether either the ST or Dual-Task treadmill training paradigms would be feasible or effective in FXTAS.

A total of 10 individuals with FXTAS will recruited from the Rush University Movement Disorders Clinic or the FXTAS Clinic Database at Rush University. The subjects will be assigned to either 6 weeks of dual-task treadmill exercise training combined with a cognitive task (intervention group) occurring 3 times weekly, or control group. The primary outcome measures will be feasibility, safety and patient adherence. The assessments will occur at baseline, week 3, week 6, 1 month \& 6 month post-training.
