Graded exercise therapy (GET) is a programme of physical activity that starts very slowly and gradually increases over time, intended as a treatment for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS).

[ 15 ] During EMS training, a set of complementary muscle groups (e.g., biceps and triceps) are often targeted in alternating fashion, for specific training goals, [ 16 ] such as improving ...

Exercise may be more effective than medication at managing mental health disorders like anxiety and depression, new research shows. Experts weigh in.
