7.8. Interventions i FITT Principle: F: 2 times a week I: maximum to minimum T: Group 1 SMT, Group 2 RT T: 40-50 min Individuals were assigned 1:1 to either sensory motor training or resistance training. ii Groups with sufficient details 1 Experimental: Group1: Participants in the sensory-motor training group received 8-week program of exercise 2 times a week. It starts with a warm-up on stationary bicycle for 10 minutes, stretching exercises. In this group the main focus was on agility exercises that includes a balance board, walking on different directions, crossing steps while walking backward and forward and walking on different surfaces. The duration for these exercises was 40-50 minutes per session.

The individuals allocated to the resistance training received a same 8-weeks exercise program twice a week. Exercise began with the same warm-up on stationary bicycle for 10 minutes then traction was applied, Isometric hip flexion and leg extension, stretching exercises for lower limb, Quadriceps and hamstring strengthening using ankle weights were used with frequency twice a week. 3 sets of 10 repetitions at 30 to 40% of 1RM and low to moderate intensity loads were applied for 15 minutes bilaterally.
