Using exercise & strength to manage fatigue

In this practical and evidence-based session, exercise physiologist Chris explores exercise as medicine in oncology, with a specific focus on managing cancer-related fatigue.

The webinar explains how appropriately prescribed exercise can safely reduce fatigue, improve strength, cardiovascular fitness, mood, and quality of life for people living with cancer. Chris breaks down the science behind cancer-related fatigue, why rest alone can worsen symptoms, and how exercise can interrupt the fatigue–deconditioning cycle. Viewers are guided through aerobic, resistance, flexibility, and mindful movement options, with clear explanations of intensity, frequency, and how to adapt exercise across all stages of the cancer continuum — from diagnosis through treatment and beyond. The session also addresses safety considerations, common barriers (including financial access), and simple, achievable ways to build movement into daily life.
