Abstract: The article explores the response of people with Huntington's disease (HD) on exercise testing and training. During the exercise test, no changes are noted in heart rate or perceived exertion on the Borg-CR10 scale. Large variability is found in the metabolic and physiological responses to exercise in the patients. Altered exercise prescription parameters are deemed important for people with HD.
