Actual (reported)Multiple sclerosis is one of the leading causes of disability in young adults. It is known that patients with pediatric onset multiple sclerosis (POMS) experience their first demyelinating attack before the age of 18. However, studies conducted with individuals with pediatric onset of multiple sclerosis have been reported to be few and have affected parameters such as physical activity, fatigue balance and quality of life. Therefore, this study is planned to consist of two stages. These are the following stages;

Actual (reported)The Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
It is a self-reported questionnaire with two questions that measures the physical activity behavior of the participants. In the first question, the frequencies of mild, moderate and intense physical activity performed for more than 15 minutes in a normal week are questioned. Weekly frequencies of light, moderate, and vigorous physical activities are multiplied by 3, 5 and 9 metabolic equivalents, respectively, and the sum of the results is recorded as total leisure activity. Second question seeks the frequency of activity that causes sweating in a normal week is questioned. Less than 14 scores means insufficiently active/sedentary, 14-23 scores means moderately active and 24 scores or more means active. So higher scores better outcomes.
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
One-Week Step Count Measurement with Pedometer for Physical Activity Assessment (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
It is one of the objective methods used to evaluate physical activity. It is used to record the number of steps taken. The estimated step length is entered into the device and recorded as a step when the vertical oscillation of the body exceeds a certain threshold value. In our study, the number of steps taken by the participants during a week before and after treatment will be calculated and recorded. Higher scores better outcomes.
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
Evaluation of Isokinetic Muscle Strength of Quadriceps and Hamstring Muscles with Biodex Multi-Joint System (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
Knee Joint Proprioception Assessment with Biodex Multi-Joint System (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
Static and Dynamic Postural Stability Assessment with Biodex Balance System (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
6 Minute Walk Test (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).
Baseline and end of weeks 8.
Timed 25-Foot Walk (The change between the initial value and the value after 2 months will be evaluated).

Participants in the online exercise program group will be given a treatment protocol consisting of aerobic exercise and strengthening exercises in the presence of a physiotherapist for a total of 8 weeks, 2 days a week for 1 hour.
Participants in the control group will be put on the waiting list after all assessment methods have been applied and will be re-evaluated at the end of 8 weeks.
Participants in the online exercise program group will be given a treatment protocol consisting of aerobic exercise and strengthening exercises in the presence of a physiotherapist for a total of 8 weeks, 2 days a week for 1 hour. Before starting the exercise, the risk of possible injury will be minimized by doing warm-up exercises and preparations will be made to start the exercise. Then, the exercise program will be started with aerobic exercise. Strengthening exercises will be planned for large muscle groups, targeting body parts such as hips, knees, shoulders, abdomen and trunk. In exercises, it is planned to do 2 sets of 10-15 repetitions using elastic band, free weights or body weight. The exercise program will be created according to the condition of the people and progression will be provided every 2 weeks. After the exercises are completed, cool down will be done with relaxation and stretching exercises.
