Brief summary
This randomised feasibility trial aims to assess the potential and feasibility of an individualised 12-week exercise program supervised by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist, embedded within an existing healthcare service.
Interventions
An individualised 12-week exercise program supervised by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist delivered three times a week at a face-to-face appointment.
Each exercise session will last for a approximately 30 minutes and will involve a 5-minute warm-up followed by 10 minutes of aerobic exercise (e.g. limb cycling), 10 minutes of resistance exercises (e.g., chest press and leg curls) and then a 5-minute a cool-down. Exercise intensity will be monitored and gradually increased using a perceived ex

Exercise intensity will be monitored and gradually increased using a perceived exertion scale (Borg’s scale). All exercises will be tailored to the participant's need and will include lower limb exercises where possible. Attendance, participation and safety will be documented at the end of every session.
