This study investigates the efficacy of a telehealth exercise program designed specifically for rural cancer survivors with cancer-related fatigue (CRF). Small dried blood samples and measures of physical function will be collected throughout the program. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the exercise program improve CRF in rural cancer survivors?
* How do CRF, metabolism, and physical function change during the exercise program? Researchers will compare the program to a wait-list control group. This group will complete all study measures without without changing current physical activity before receiving the full exercise program.
Participants will:
* Complete a virtual physical assessment before and after the program.
* Complete brief virtual assessments and collect dried blood samples (at home and mailed in) every two weeks during the program.
* Receive a personalized exercise program including virtual sessions and remote exercise programming with a cancer exercise specialist (after a 12-week wait period in the wait-list control group).
* Optional: Willing participants will visit a study site for a laboratory-based exercise assessment before and after the program.
