Summary
This study tests an 8-week home exercise program delivered through a smartphone app for women aged 45-65 who are in early menopause (within 6 years of their last period). The goal is to see if the program improves quality of life, muscle strength, balance, and physical performance. About 90 participants will be recruited, and the study compares short- and long-term effects of the app-based workouts.
