Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Movement-to-Music
12 weeks of sprint-intensity interval training while following along with YouTube videos that include arm-based routines, with coaching through telecommunications. Participants are instructed to maintain their habitual diet and nutrition patterns
Sprint-Intensity Interval Training with Telecoaching
Maximal intensity exercises that use the arms.
Wait-list Control
12 weeks of maintaining habitual physical activity, diet, and nutrition patterns, until receiving 12 weeks of Movement-to-Music
No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* aged 6-17 years old
* a Gross Motor Function Classification System Level I-IV (as determined via participant screening, explained in the protocol section below)
* medical clearance to participate in high-intensity exercise from a physician (using the attached medical screening form and explained in the intervention safety, monitoring, and response plan)
* access to a Wi-Fi Internet connection in the home via mobile phone or tablet computer
* a caregiver who will support and monitor the participant's safety during the intervention and manage the child's exercise schedule.
Exclusion Criteria
* cannot use their arms for exercise
* a Gross Motor Function Classification Level of V
* complete blindness or deafness;
* Any past history of a contraindication to exercise testing according to American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) guidelines (Liguori and American College of Sports Medicine, 2020): significant change in the resting electrocardiogram suggesting significant ischemia, myocardial infarction, or other cardiac event, unstable angina, uncontrolled cardiac dysrhythmias causing symptoms or hemodynamic compromise, symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, uncontrolled symptomatic heart failure, pulmonary embolus or pulmonary infarction, myocarditis or pericarditis, aneurysm.
* pregnant (due to radiation from a Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry \[DEXA\] scan)
* has not been seen by a physician within the last year
* uses a g-tube
Eligible caregivers will include parents or legal guardians of the child, who can commit sufficient time to support the child in their roles for the study and communicate in English. Caregivers who have complete blindness or deafness will be excluded from participation.
