A Randomized Control Trial study will be conducted in which patients with stroke will be allocated to Group A that will receive imaginary resistance exercises and patients in group B will receive physical resistance exercises. The intervention will be applied (3 days /week) for 12 weeks, which consists of 5 different types of resistance using 5 different resistive objects, each will have 15 repetitions. Each session includes handgrip exercises with physical resistance exercises for one group and imaginary resistance exercises using Virtual Reality Box for another group. As for improving dexterity and eye-hand coordination, the Purdue pegboard test and finger-to-nose test will be used respectively in both groups with 15-15 repetitions.
