It is associated with premature muscle weakness, significant fatiguability, and a tendency toward sedentariness. To overcome these challenges, their physical rehabilitation usually rely on multimodal interventions including functional work, strength training and aerobic training. However, in practice, the intensity and adherence to these methods are variable, which may limit their long-term effects on the function, participation and overall health of this population. In this context, rehabilitation strategies are therefore evolving towards more intensive and task-oriented modalities. CrossFit fits into this dynamic. It is a training program based on functional and varied movements performed at adapted high intensity. In children with cerebral palsy, strength training and cardiovascular exercises improve strength, stamina and motor function. CrossFit has the advantage of combining these two elements within the same protocol, while remaining adaptable to individual abilities. It could also promote adherence to the practice thanks to individualized progression and its collective dimension. This article explores the physiological foundations and the data from available clinical studies on strength training and cardiovascular exercises, before discussing CrossFit as a potentially relevant, accessible, and safe rehabilitation strategy under appropriate supervision. CrossFit thus appears as a promising avenue, whose specific interest in cerebral palsy still needs to be confirmed by dedicated studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39498,"journal":{"name":"Motricite Cerebrale","volume":"47 2","pages":"Pages 38-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148146579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Treatment aims to enhance mobility, posture, and quality of life through intensive motor learning principles including repetition, motivation, and task-specific practice. The French High Authority of Health advocates for intensified rehabilitation to maximize functional gains. Among proven strategies, two approaches stand out: Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and Bimanual Intensive Therapy (BIT). In 2018, the Habil’Hand program was developed to combine these two therapeutic strategies. This intensive two-week rehabilitation program, carried out in conventional hospitalization, was designed by an interdisciplinary team. Its goals include developing motor abilities targeted by the child and their family, integrating the affected upper limb into daily activities, and improving bimanual coordination. The program emphasizes applying acquired skills in everyday life while aligning with the specific objectives of each child. Habil’Hand represents progress in intensive rehabilitation by merging proven techniques with a child-centered approach.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39498,"journal":{"name":"Motricite Cerebrale","volume":"47 1","pages":"Pages 8-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147552962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
