To determine if participation in a 16-week exercise and diet intervention could improve quality of life (QOL), fatigue, and depression. II. To determine the effects of a 16-week exercise and diet intervention on cardiovascular (CV) health. OUTLINE: Patients undergo aerobic exercise thrice weekly over 95 minutes for up to 16 weeks. Patients also undergo multi-lifestyle interventions based on the dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) diet once weekly over 1 hour for up to 16 weeks.
