If exercise is “MEDICINE” for fibromyalgia then which type, should we prescribe?
The message is clear. There is no single “BEST” exercise. Instead, the optimal choice may depend on timing, patient preference, and long-term adherence. Notably, modalities such as dance may offer additional benefits through enjoyment, social engagement, and sustainability.
However, clinicians should interpret these rankings cautiously, as evidence certainty remains low to moderate and heterogeneous. This paper reinforces a key principle in rehabilitation. Exercise selection should be individualised, meaningful, and sustainable, rather than protocol driven.

@nirit_rotem@MSKPhysioJnl Thanks for your comment. The goal wasn’t to find “the best exercise.” I agree there’s no single best option for a complex condition. We simply examined whether any modality showed greater effects on FIQ. In fact, that’s exactly what we found: none is “the best.” Best regard! 🙂

@Retlouping Actually, the "moderate" level of evidence is quite high considering that the nature of active interventions does not allow for blinding of the therapist and patient. Therefore, physical exercise studies can NEVER have "strong" evidence. Best regards!
@Retlouping I have no conflict of interest with the study's results, but suggesting that the results are "overestimated" due to an incorrect and superficial reading of the study doesn't seem right to me
😍BARBELLS FOR BACK PAIN😍
Huge bias stroking time… a new systematic review confirms what many of us already know:
Resistance training helps many with chronic low back pain!
✅ Less pain
✅ Less disability
✅ Better quality of life

And yes I’m aware that not all the results reached clinical significance and the other limitations of this review
And yes I know its not going to work well with everyone, and not on its own without education and empowerment!
But its a damn sight better than ‘laser-guided electro-dry needling or ‘functional postural realignment therapy’ thats for sure!
Less massages and manips… more kettlebells and bands!
