What this trial is about
While walking exercises performed outdoors are important within the scope of aerobic exercise, the continuity of outdoor walking exercises can be negatively affected by different weather conditions. Walking exercises performed indoors on a treadmill are a good option for patients in terms of increasing exercise continuity and patient compliance. Walking outdoors supported by a treadmill and mobile application may increase aerobic capacity and quality of life in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome, as well as reduce kinesiophobia.
