The goal of this randomised clinical trial (open label) is to test the effect of supervised aerobic and resistance exercises in chronic liver disease patients being planned for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). The main question it aims to answer are: * If pre-operative supervised aerobic and resistance exercise for 4 weeks can improve the measures of frailty (Liver frailty index, Short physical performance battery, pulmonary function tests) in chronic liver disease patients being planned for LDLT. * Can this approach also translate into clinically significant benefits in the postoperative outcomes of LDLT. Participants will be randomised into two groups receiving either 1. Standard medical therapy along with supervised aerobic and resistance exercises for 4 weeks. 2. Standard medical therapy. The two groups will be compared for progression of the measures of frailty ver the course of their participation as well as their post LDLT outcomes.
