Breast Cancer and Exercise

Research shows that exercise can reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence, as well as reducing the risk of developing breast cancer if you’ve never been diagnosed.
A 2010 review concluded that exercise is safe during and after all breast cancer treatments as long as you take any needed precautions and keep the intensity low.  It improves physical functioning, quality of life, and cancer-related fatigue.  There also is evidence that exercise can help breast cancer survivors live longer and lead a more active life.
Exercise can lower your risk of breast cancer recurring, as well as help you maintain a healthy weight, ease treatment side effects, boost your energy, and more!
