Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about multiple sclerosis (MS). The investigators are studying whether aerobic exercise is better than a stretching program at improving brain health in people with MS. We want to learn: 1. If it is safe and practical for people with MS to participate in an aerobic exercise program with the goal of increasing cardiac fitness. Cardiac fitness is measured with exercise stress tests at the beginning and end of the study. 2. If aerobic exercise improves brain metabolism, a reflection of brain health, more than stretching. Brain metabolism is measured by MRIs at the beginning and end of the study. There is a 50% chance of being in the aerobic exercise or the stretching program. There are between 8 and 36 visits to OHSU, depending on the intervention group. The total duration of the study is at most 21 weeks.
Primary Outcome
1. Changes in VO2Max testing consists of an aerobic exercise test on a treadmill or stationary bicycle to measure blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen consumption, and lung function tests 2. Brain ATP production is measured using a 31P MRSI imaging procedure: MRI data is collected using 7 tesla MRI instrument. All MRI data will be collected within 1.25 hour on each session (2.5 hour total/subject).
Interventions
