Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: To present hemiparesis due to stroke for more than 6 months; Mild or moderate motor impairment determined by the Fugl-Meyer test with lower limb scores between 20 and 31 points; Comfortable walking speed in the ground between 0.3 and 1.15 m / s; Classification between levels 04 to 06 in Functional Mobility Scale (FMS) - Functional Mobility Scale and ability to perform exercise on the bicycle; Presentation of AVC provings; Signature of science regarding the term of free and informed consent (TCLE); Blood test (hematological and biochemical); Image examination of lesion location; The use of beta blockers will not be considered an exclusion factor due to the large percentage of patients taking this drug, a separate analysis will be performed to see if there are baseline differences in the other patients.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: To present cognitive deficits in the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) with scores below 17 points; Visual impairment that may interfere with the performance of the tests; Severe cardiac problems (congestive heart failure, angina, peripheral vascular disease), use of pacemaker; Contraindications to the use of CTEE (brain implant of metal clips near the area to be stimulated, history of recurrent seizure, recurrent epilepsy and brain tumors, cerebral pacemaker, bore or cracks in the cranial cavity, cutaneous lesions near the area to be stimulated and / or metal plates or devices at the ETCC stimulation site); Irregular menstrual cycle or being in the menstrual period during the evaluation; No medical certificate for the aerobic exercise test
