In this episode, we discuss the importance of exercise in the oncology setting. We discuss the role of exercise in cancer prevention and in different disease stages: pre- and post-surgery, systemic treatment, survivorship, and advanced disease.
We detail the benefits of different types of exercise and the risks associated with sedentary behavior. We also discuss specific benefits of exercise for tackling side effects such as fatigue, depression/anxiety, and loss of muscle mass.
We discuss the common fear of exercising with lymphedema and possible contraindications of exercise in oncology.
This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to bring you more insights, inspiring stories, and innovative ideas about how lifestyle changes can play a huge role in cancer care and longevity.
