Adherence

Home-based training (HBT) is an effective alternative to supervised exercise training when SET is not feasible, provided it is monitored.

If you can't go to a supervised clinic, do home-based walking exercises. Start with 20 minutes and build up to 60 minutes, 3 times a week. Use a pedometer, smartwatch, or logbook to track your activity. This is a valid alternative to supervised training.
