I wonder how many of them 'recovered'?
Funded by the MS Society, the research was published in the Multiple Sclerosis Journal.
Prof Saxton said: "It seems illogical to turn to exercise as a way of managing fatigue, but the results showed that a pragmatic programme based on short bouts of moderate-intensity exercise can really help people improve symptoms and quality of life.
"Exercise can also offer social interaction - walking with friends, bike riding with the family - there's a lot to gain."
Ed Holloway, head of care and services research at the MS Society, said: "We're delighted that this study has shown how a well-designed exercise programme can be a cost-effective way to help manage some of the symptoms of MS.
"Fatigue in MS is an incredibly common but troubling symptom that can hugely affect an individual's quality of life. For many people with MS this programme could be a cost effective treatment option."
