Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
A three-arm randomized controlled trial will be conducted. Patients will be randomised into either a high-intensity aerobic training group or a resistance training group or a control group. Participants in the training groups will exercised for five to eight weeks. Exercise sessions will be take place 3 days per week under the supervision of an experienced therapist. Subjects will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention. The primary outcome will be fatigue measured using the FACIT-fatigue questionnaire. The secondary outcomes will be: functional capacity, quality of life, executive functions, sleep disturbances, somnolence syndrome, insomnia, depression symptoms.

High-intensity aerobic training group
High intensity interval training
High-intensity interval training
High-intensity interval training sessions will be conducted on cycle ergometers or treadmill with heart rate measured throughout each session.
Resistance training group
Muscle strengthening
Resistance training
Resistance exercise will be performed on eight exercises targeting major muscle groups at 60% to 85% of their estimated one-repetition maximum (1RM).
Control group
Usual care
