Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Does telemedicine exercise programme improve the number of 20-metre laps the participant is able to run?
* Does telemedicine exercise programme improve the insulin sensitivity using the Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) formula?
Researchers will compare the telemedicine exercise programme to current active lifestyle programme (e.g., daily step count monitoring) to see if telemedicine exercise programme is more effective in improving cardiorespiratory fitness.
Participants will:
* participate in weekly telemedicine exercise programme or adhere to current active lifestyle recommendations through daily step count reporting for 10 weeks
* visit the clinic for pre- and post-programme cardiorespiratory fitness assessments and blood taking
