Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The study was designed as a prospective, randomized controlled study. The patients will be randomly assigned to three groups, the "multi-task training (MT)" group, the "single task training (ST)" group, and "control" group. The training will be twice a week for 6 weeks.
Statistical analyses will be performed using the SPSS software version 15 (SPSS Inc. Chicago, IL, USA). The pre-training and post-training measurements of groups will be compared with the Wilcoxon Test. The significance level was set at p\< 0.05

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Single task training
The exercise program consisting of 10 different motor tasks will be implemented in a single task training group.
Single task training
An exercise program consisting of 10 different motor tasks will be implemented in a single task training group.
Multi-task training
In the multitasking training group, a second motor task in the first two weeks, a cognitive task in the third and fourth week, both motor and cognitive tasks in the last two weeks will be added to these 10 different motor tasks.
Multi-task training
In the multitasking training group, a second motor task in the first two weeks, a cognitive task in the third and fourth week, both motor and cognitive tasks in the last two weeks will be added to these 10 different motor tasks.
Control group
The control group will be taught relaxation exercises and will be asked to perform the exercises at home.
