15 Practical Fitness Tips for Kidney Patients: Using RPE for Intensity, Progressive Overload, Protein Without Harming Your Kidneys, SARC-F Sarcopenia Self-Test, Warm-up & Breathing, Hydration and the Potassium in Sports Drinks

Once you know you *should* exercise, the real sticking points are how, how much, and what to eat. This article answers the 15 questions kidney patients ask most: the RPE scale, how much weight to add each week, protein targets for non-dialysis CKD / dialysis / transplant, what to eat after training, the 5-question SARC-F test, warm-up and cool-down, breathing, the potassium content of sports drinks, and which symptoms mean stop. Every tip cites its evidence.

How Should Kidney Transplant Recipients Train? Protecting the Graft, Steroid & Immunosuppressant Effects, Phase-by-Phase Post-Surgery Program, and Countering Post-Transplant Diabetes & Bone Loss

A successful transplant is not the finish line; it is the start of rebuilding a body that dialysis and medication have worn down. Based on the KDIGO transplant guideline and transplant-recipient exercise RCTs, this article explains where the graft sits and which movements to avoid; how prednisolone and tacrolimus affect muscle and glucose; what to train at 0–6 weeks, 6–12 weeks and beyond 3 months; and how training counters post-transplant diabetes, bone loss and cardiovascular risk.

How Diabetic Kidney Patients Should Train: When to Check Glucose, When Not to Train, the Science of Post-Meal Walking, Protecting Feet and Eyes, and Adjustments for Insulin and SGLT2 Users

People with diabetes and kidney disease gain the most from exercise (glucose, blood pressure and albuminuria all improve) but must manage three special problems: hypoglycaemia, foot injury and retinopathy. Based on ADA 2025 and KDIGO 2022, this article explains how to read glucose before, during and after exercise, why post-meal walking works, when not to train, how insulin and each glucose-lowering drug class interact with exercise, and gives a sample week.

How Dialysis Patients Should Train: A 12-Week Program for Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis — Intradialytic Exercise, Fistula Protection, Abdominal Pressure, Potassium and Fluids

Dialysis patients need training the most and are told to "take it easy" the most. Based on Cochrane 2022, KDOQI and renal rehabilitation guidelines, this article gives separate 12-week plans for HD and PD: when to train (on dialysis / non-dialysis days), what to train (aerobic + strength + balance), how to handle the fistula arm, which movements PD patients must avoid, how to manage potassium and dehydration, and eight exercises you can do in the dialysis chair.

Why Should Kidney Patients Exercise, and What Do They Gain? From KDIGO Guidelines to 2024 Systematic Reviews — An Evidence-Based Answer

Many kidney patients are told to "rest more", yet three decades of research agree: regular aerobic and strength exercise lowers mortality, improves heart and lung function, fights sarcopenia, stabilises blood pressure and glucose, eases depression and sleep, and even makes dialysis more efficient. We summarise KDIGO 2024, KDOQI, Cochrane and major meta-analyses to answer "why move" and "what you get".

Strength Training with a Fistula: The Complete Guide for Kidney Patients

Muscle disappears fast after starting dialysis — and resistance training is the best answer. But how do you lift with a fistula? Here's my program, equipment choices and potassium management.
