Brief Summary

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

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether adding strength training to aerobic training has a comparable or greater effect on the clinical status of Parkinson's disease patients than a standalone aerobic training.

\- Does combined strength-endurance circuit training provide added benefits to physical performance, disease severity, blood biomarkers, and quality of life in PD patients compared to standalone aerobic training?

Participants will:

* undergo outcome measurements before and after the 12-week intervention and a 3-month follow-up measurement,
* visit the clinic twice a week for 1-hour training sessions.
* selected patients will be given a smartwatch with a pedometer that will count their average number of steps before, during and after the training period
