The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 10 weeks of Thera-band training and treadmill training on daily living activity and proprioceptive perception in hemiplegic stroke patients. This study included chronic hemiplegic patients consisted of Thera-band(n=8) and training group(n=8) and was performed for 50 minutes each session 3 times a week for 10 weeks. The results of this study showed that mutual effects of groups and periods showed significance in knee extensions of paretic sides. 10 weeks of Thera-band training and treadmill training showed positive effects on daily living activity and proprioceptive perception in hemiplegic stroke patients. Especially, resistive exercise programs were more effective than aerobic exercise in lower variables. Especially, not only resistive exercise such as Thera-band but also aerobic treadmill exercises showed significance to prevent loss of proprioceptive perception and fall down due to inappropriate weight bearing which often can be seen in hemiplegic patients. Therefore, combined aerobic and resistance exercise training would be more effective in treating hemiplegic stroke patients.
