Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study is a preliminary study to assess whether it is possible to introduce an exercise program for BMT patients after discharge from hospital. The exercise program will include 3 endurance (stationary bike, walking) and 2 resistance (weights, stretch bands) training sessions/week, until 100 days after BMT. Our second plan is to test changes in QoL, aerobic fitness, muscle strength, total body fat and mineral composition, and blood immune markers with exercise in the 100 days after BMT. The investigators anticipate this study will improve the QoL, mobility, and strength of patients after BMT, therefore allowing a faster and healthier recovery.
