First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week home exercise program, led remotely by a coach, can improve fitness and daily function in 100 veterans aged 40+ who were exposed to burn pits during deployment. Participants will either do the tele-exercise or receive standard health education. The goal is to see if this approach can help with common problems like shortness of breath and difficulty running.
