Summary

remotely-delivered exercise training program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a home-based exercise program is a practical way to help manage symptoms in early rheumatoid arthritis.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 15 people, so results may not apply broadly. It focuses on feasibility, not on proving the exercise works for arthritis.
