Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control
The control arm will receive no additional prehabilitation material prior to material. Rather, they will receive standard preoperative care in which they will be given standard advice on nutrition and fitness. REDcap surveys will be administered.
No interventions assigned to this group
Prehab Intervention Arm
The intervention arm will receive access to the prehab program (abdominal workout videos) and surveys via RedCAP.The program will start no less than 14 days before the date of surgery.
Prehabilitation Program
Nutrition component: Participants will receive information on how to follow a healthy diet (Mediterranean-style diet) with emphasis on whole foods, plants, lean protein, olive oil; restriction of red meats, processed meats, processed foods, added sugar)
Exercise component: Participants will receive an activity tracker to use during the study period (3+ weeks before surgery, and 30 days after surgery). Participants will be assigned strength exercises to work on core strength and proximal muscle strength (biceps/triceps, quads, hamstrings, calves).The exercises will mainly be focused on strengthening the abdominal wall. Exercises will be tailored to patients' individual capabilities. They will also be assigned cardio exercises - either low-intensity steady state cardio vs High Intensity Interval training. Level of cardio exercise will be tailored based on patient's Duke Activity score and baseline activity.
