Effect of Aerobic Training in Patients With Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy

Effect of Aerobic Training in Patients With Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy

The investigators want to investigate if patients with Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy can improve fitness by home-training on a cycle ergometer 30 minute, 3 times a week for 10 weeks.

Participants will be evaluated on maximal oxygen consumption and maximal workload measured by an incremental test at baseline and at the end of the exercise period.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Danish patients with Oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients who are too week to train on an cycle-ergometer for 10 weeks
• Patients with other health issues wich confound the interpretation of the efficacy.
