•We will recruit men and women, aged 18+, admitted to St John of God (Burwood) hospital, for treatment of an alcohol use disorder. Participants must also have a current co-morbid mental health condition (other than active psychosis). This will be confirmed in one of the following ways:
•- Identified when auditing medical records at St John of God Hospital.
•- Current pharmacological treatment for a mental health condition identified when auditing medical records,
•- Confirmed by general practitioner or psychiatrist.
•Individuals who do not satisfy either of the criteria above, may be eligible for inclusion based on a score of greater than 10 on the PHQ-9 (major depressive disorder) or a score greater than 10 on the GAD-7 (anxiety). Diagnosis of depression or anxiety will be confirmed by the study physician. Participants must have completed acute withdrawal treatment for the alcohol or any other substance they have been using before they are approached for recruitment. Participants must have the capacity to consent (assessed by SJoGH admitting staff), competency in English sufficient for assessment and training, and clearance from the study physician to exercise.

•Participants will be excluded from participation in the study if they present with active suicidal ideation, active psychosis, delirium, dementia, acute withdrawal, unstable cardiovascular disease, unrepaired aortic aneurysm, rapidly progressive or terminal illness and other conditions that would preclude participation in an exercise trial or require urgent psychiatric referral. Participants who are performing greater than 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity or greater intensity planned exercise of any kind, will also be excluded from participation.
