Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a combined training programme and a high intensity interval training programme on insulin resistance, muscle strength/ muscle contractile properties, aerobic capacity and body composition in MS patients.

It is assumed that the the above mentioned clinical parameters will improve due to physical exercise.
