The evidence demonstrating the benefits of exercise is indisputable for healthy subjects, and more recently, it is growing for Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Due to its easy access, low cost, social facilitation and, above all, the symptomatic effect, clinical exercise may have a profound impact on PD management. Especially considering that in recent decades there have been no major advances from the pharmacological point of view. Despite this, clinical exercise use it stills limited by the existent flaws in the available evidence supporting its use and guiding its prescription as a PD therapeutic intervention. We believe that a approach from the most relevant scientific and clinical fields is crucial to establish the use of clinical exercise in PD patients' routine care. Therefore, in this viewpoint, we aim to highlight the importance of clinical exercise as a therapeutic intervention in PD, and particularly of the benefits of applying sports science principles to potentiate the use of clinical exercise as a therapeutic intervention in PD management.
运动对健康受试者有益的证据是无可争议的，最近，帕金森病（PD）患者的相关证据也在不断增加。由于运动易于开展、成本低、具有社交促进作用，最重要的是有症状改善效果，临床运动可能会对PD的管理产生深远影响。特别是考虑到近几十年来，从药理学角度来看并没有重大进展。尽管如此，临床运动的应用仍然受到现有证据缺陷的限制，这些证据支持其作为PD治疗干预措施的使用并指导其处方。我们认为，来自最相关科学和临床领域的方法对于在PD患者的常规护理中确立临床运动的使用至关重要。因此，在本观点中，我们旨在强调临床运动作为PD治疗干预措施的重要性，特别是应用运动科学原理来增强临床运动作为PD管理治疗干预措施的益处。
