Note. ACT = Assisted Cycling Therapy; BBT-NP (Box and Blocks Test-non-paretic): number of successfully transported blocks in minute with the non-paretic arm; BBT-P (Box and Blocks Test-paretic): number of successfully transported blocks in 1 minute with the paretic arm; LEMOCOT-NP (Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test-non-paretic): mean number of successful toe-touches in 20 seconds with the non-paretic leg; LEMOCOT-P (Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test - paretic): mean number of successful toe-touches in 20 seconds with the paretic leg.
Differences between pre- and posttest means were tested with paired samples t-tests (df = 21): p < 0.05, p < 0.001.
