Physical ActivityAnaerobic
Aerobic - most prevention/survival research
Bouts up to 2 mins, highest % effort, uses CP & ATP, & results in lactic acid build-up (burning)
Bouts > 2 mins, sub-max effort, uses aerobic processes (O2), w/ training - can sustain for longer periods

Types of Aerobic Activities
walking, jogging, running
cycling
swimming
skiing
household: sweeping, vacuuming etc.
recreational / occupational

All studies - 25% reduction in breast cancer risk
Among only those studies finding that activity reduced breast cancer risk
◦ 36% reduction risk in active

Activity Responsive Pathways Immune function
Growth factors, GF binding proteins
Sex hormones & binding proteins
Endogenous antioxidant enzyme systems
Oxidative stress DNA repair

Intervention Studies
Majority among breast cancer
Significant physiological benefits
Significant psychological benefits
Improved QOL, depression, anxiety
Improved self-esteem

Intervention Studies
Mostly aerobic activities
Positive effects: resistance training
- anaerobic
Flexibility
Do - able! Benefits!

Getting StartedBring up the subject!
“Here are some things you can do as part of your treatment,…to help you live better and longer”.
Be specific in advice
Provide an exercise prescription
![Page 19: Physical Activity & Breast Cancer](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051517/56814f7c550346895dbd2d0e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Exercise Prescription Elements1. Frequency - how often
2. Intensity - % effort, 60 - 80%
3. Duration - how long each bout lasts
Initial fitness level
Type of exercise
Additional considerations:

Exercise Prescription: Br CA
Start slowly, but be specific
“3 times during the next week, walk 2 blocks away from your house, turn & walk 2 more blocks & continue until you’ve walked back to your house”
“keep 2 canned goods near your TV & every commercial alternate holding out front, to the side, overhead, curls”
Watching 2 hrs TV nightly:

Physical Activity - Breast Cancer
decreases risk
enhances treatment
improves survival

Beneficial Physical
Activity types
aerobic (cardiovascular)
anaerobic (resistance training)
flexibility (range-of-motion)

Promoting regular activity among:
women at riskwomen undergoing treatmentsurvivors
* Develop own hand-out:check boxes for prescription, diaries

Join: gym w/ set classes (like Curves) program/organization(Bone-builders, Walk Across Arizona, Better Than Ever, litter patrol, dog walkers, Masters Swim club, hiking club, dance classes, etc.)
Enlist: friend, spouse, dog
Pedometer: log steps / day on the calendar working to a 10,000 steps / day goal
