Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Feasibility of the exercise program (Retention)

Percent of patients that complete the intervention

Time frame
up to 24 weeks after start of intervention
2

Feasibility of the exercise program (Adherence)

Percent of patients that complete the exercise sessions

Time frame
12 weeks after start of intervention
3

Feasibility of the exercise program (fidelity)

Upon completion of the trial, a random sample of 10 recorded sessions will be analyzed for fidelity. Research staff who did not conduct the intervention will use a "fidelity checklist" of specific exercises and intervention characteristics (e.g., allowing time for questions, cueing for proper posture and form, etc.) required for each exercise session..

Time frame
12 weeks after start of intervention
4

Satisfaction of program

14-item scale measuring ease of use, convenience, engagement, enjoyment, and privacy elements of the intervention.

Time frame
up to 24 weeks after start of intervention
