This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This is a pilot study testing whether people waiting for a kidney transplant can safely and successfully do guided exercise and education from home before their surgery. The program is designed to build your physical strength and prepare your body for the transplant operation, with the goal of helping you recover faster and have fewer complications after surgery.
People waiting for kidney transplants are often weak and face serious health challenges. Early studies suggest that getting physically stronger before surgery—through exercise and education—can reduce recovery time and complications, but we need to test whether this approach works well for kidney transplant patients specifically.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to either receive the home-based exercise and education program or to continue with usual care. The exercise program runs for 12 weeks and happens entirely at home through video calls with a trainer. You will do guided exercises, learn about preparing for transplant, and be checked on regularly to make sure the program is working well and is safe for you.
