Regular physical activity promotes physical and mental well-being in the general population. Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS patients) tend them, to limit their physical activity or because of deficiencies related to the disease, or even on the advice of their caregivers in order to save their functional abilities. Time for leisure activity could be almost 20% lower in MS patients compared to healthy controls, and this situation is likely to aggravate the functional symptoms of multiple sclerosis.
The literature described the benefit of physical activity for MS patients according to protocols and varied assessments. Evaluations were indeed concern very analytical elements of metabolic functioning, nervous, muscular, cardiopulmonary etc ... or take into account the performance of components or fatigue and quality of life. Due to the multiplicity of RE protocols, sometimes on the verge of pragmatic goals of functional rehabilitation, the double issue was the profit earned by an RE program and of this benefit by level of severity of MS. The main objective of our study was an evaluation of the effects on fatigue and quality of life of a retraining program to effort suitable for levels of impairment and patients with MS activity limitations. The secondary objective was checking a performance improvement of the patients in this adapted program.

Due to the double question about the expected benefits of our CR program, the inclusion of patients was conducted in two distinct periods, from specialized MS consultations in the services of Neurology and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation ( MPR) of the University Hospital of Nantes (France). The first period (I) would lead to compare patients with EDSS less than 6 performing an exercise training (retrained group = IA) and patients with similar levels of EDSS not engaged in physical training (not retrained group = IB). The second period (II) compared to patients EDSS between 6 and 8 (EDSS group high = IIA) and patients with lower EDSS (EDSS group IIB = low), the two groups were following a RE program.
