Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Age > 45 years
* First stroke resulting in hemiplegia
* At least 4-months post stroke
* Residing at home or community-based (non-institutionalized) living environment
* Self selected gait velocity between 0.42 m/s to 0.80 m/s
* No longer receiving physiotherapy.
* Adequate comprehension of instructions and perceptual abilities (assessed by stroke clinician during medical screening), no significant musculotendinous or bony restrictions of the affected limb, nor any serious chronic disease independently causing significant disability or profound atrophy of the affected limb will comprise further indications to participation

Key exclusion criteria
* Subjects will be excluded if they have significant cardiac disease, symptom limiting peripheral vascular disease, or any of the exclusion criteria contraindicating moderate exercise as outlined by the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines for cardiac disease rehabilitation or for frail and elderly adults. The initial symptom-limited/maximal aerobic assessment will serve as the screening test for contraindications to further exercise.

Summary
Brief summary
This study will investigate the efficacy of aerobic exercise and progressive resistance training (PRT), singularly and combined, on changes in walking endurance for mildly-to-moderately affected chronic stroke patients. Specifically, we will determine the relative importance of training induced changes in muscle strength versus aerobic fitness on increases in gait velocity and 6-min walking distance, and assess the concomitant functional and psychosocial impact of increased muscle strength, aerobic fitness and improved gait. This longitudinal study will be conducted as a double blinded factorial randomized controlled trial of exercise training for chronic stroke patients.
