Vigorous physical activity is associated with additional mortality risk reduction compared with moderate physical activity

2021-03-25T03:07:47+00:00

Association of Physical Activity Intensity With Mortality A National Cohort Study of 403 681 US Adults In this exceptionally large epidemiology study it was concluded that for the same volume of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), a higher proportion of vigorous physical activity (VPA) to total physical activity was associated with lower all-cause mortality. [...]

Minimal dose of resistance exercise effectiveness in patients with prostate cancer

2021-03-25T03:08:08+00:00

What is the minimal dose for resistance exercise effectiveness in prostate cancer patients? Systematic review and meta-analysis on patient-reported outcomes Even a relatively low dosage of resistance training results in clinically significant benefits in men with prostate cancer if intensity is moderate to high. This is in part because most are untrained to begin [...]

Resistance Training during Chemotherapy with Doxorubicin

2021-03-25T03:08:29+00:00

Resistance training attenuates decline in skeletal muscle function during doxorubicin treatment While this is a pre-clinical study in rodents there are important implications for exercise medicine. Doxorubicin reduces muscle mass and strength however the relatively low intensity resistance training implemented prevented muscle loss and increased muscle strength. Abstract Previous research has shown that resistance [...]

Exercise is proven to aid cancer treatments, so why don’t patients have subsidised access to rehab?

2021-03-25T03:08:51+00:00

Exercise is proven to aid cancer treatments, so why don't patients have subsidised access to rehab? A really good article just published by one of Australia's leading news networks putting a strong case as to why exercise physiology services should be funded by the national Medicare system. It would certainly improve patient outcomes and [...]

We have the program – what now?

2021-03-25T03:09:18+00:00

We have the program, what now? Development of an implementation plan to bridge the research-practice gap prevalent in exercise oncology Abstract Background: Exercise has emerged as a promising therapy for people with cancer. Novel programs have been developed to translate research into practice; however, implementation barriers have limited their success in part because successful translation [...]

Can exercise adaptations be maintained for men with prostate cancer in the COVID-19 landscape

2021-03-25T03:09:41+00:00

Can Exercise Adaptations Be Maintained in Men with Prostate Cancer Following Supervised Programmes? Implications to the COVID-19 Landscape of Urology and Clinical Exercise In this brief correspondence, we evaluate the potential impact of pivoting from face-to-face supervised to unsupervised home-based exercise programmes to contextualise the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in prostate cancer patients.

Protein Supplementation and Resistance Training in Childhood Cancer Survivors

2021-03-25T03:11:51+00:00

Protein Supplementation and Resistance Training in Childhood Cancer Survivors Supervised (partially) resistance training among childhood cancer survivors with protein supplementation is not more effective at increasing total lean body mass than resistance training alone. However, the resistance training volume was possibly too low to benefit from additional protein? Abstract Purpose Muscle weakness, low lean [...]

Inflammation Mediates Exercise Effects on Fatigue in Patients with Breast Cancer

2021-03-25T03:12:22+00:00

Inflammation Mediates Exercise Effects on Fatigue in Patients with Breast Cancer This paper adds good new knowledge on the mechanisms by which exercise influences cancer biology and outcomes. PURPOSE: The randomized controlled OptiTrain trial showed beneficial effects on fatigue after a 16-week exercise intervention in patients with breast cancer undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy. We hypothesize [...]
