Functional training and cycling

First 8 weeks: patients will perform 20 minutes of functional training before their dialysis procedure. The exercise program will be run by kinesiologists, who will also teach patients how to perform exercises on their own at home. During intradialysis cycling 3 times weekly participants will cycle on adapted ergometer. Participants will start with 10 - 15 minutes of cycling and then gradually increase time and intensity up to 45 minutes of duration. Second phase of 8 weeks: participants will no longer perform functional training before dialysis but will be motivated, monitored and advised to perform functional exercise at home on non-dialysis days for 20-30 minutes and continue with cycling sessions during the dialysis procedures three times weekly.

Cycling
