The Get Moving Trial is testing whether a personalized home exercise program can help people with bladder or upper urinary tract cancer improve their physical fitness and strength before and after surgery. Half of the participants will use an app called ExerciseRx to follow guided 20-30 minute exercise sessions at home, while the other half will receive standard educational materials. Both groups will wear a fitness tracker to monitor their activity.
People facing major cancer surgery often lose muscle strength and fitness, which can make recovery harder and slower. This trial is designed to see whether preparing the body with exercise before surgery—a practice called prehabilitation—helps patients recover better, stay stronger, and return to normal activities faster.

If you join this trial, you'll participate for about 4–7 months total. If you're in the exercise group, you'll download an app and follow guided home workouts four times per week (20–30 minutes each) starting at least 4 weeks before your surgery, and continue for 90 days after surgery. Both groups will wear a fitness tracker throughout the study. You'll check in with the research team at your surgery date and again 90 days after surgery.
