Summary

The investigators will conduct a pilot study to determine whether home-based exercise is an effective intervention to improve decreased physical function in kidney transplant candidates. The investigators will determine if home-based exercise improves frailty parameters and SPPB scores. The investigators will also determine if home-based exercise improves health-related quality of life (HRQOL), physical activity, and adverse clinical outcomes, including hospitalizations.
